Hello. When I host a local ArmA 3 server via the server browser menu, my friends cannot join. I have set in my router that my PC can independently release all ports it needs and I have also released all ports separately for arma to be on the safe side (port: 2302 ...) but under which IP can the server be reached? I've tried sites like whatsmyip but my friends can't join at this address. I have an IPV6 address. I want to buy the new Vietnam Dlc when it is available and then play the co-op campaign and therefore I want to see how it works with the local servers.

My quick suggestion is to put the server on a different port.

tl;dr

In the past I have had problems letting people connect to a decidated server i was running on my PC while connecting to that server as a player as a client.  None of my friends could connect to the server remotely but another PC could connect on the local nework.  To solve the problem I just rand the mission as a 'player/server' and all was fine.

I have never checked but I have a feeling that the system might not have worked becasue both the dedicated server and my client game were using the same port settings.
