Dedacated server behind a linksys wireless router

[bwelsh]

I have been trying to set up a ded.server for ut and have not had any luck in listing on the web.

the remote admin works fine I can access it through my web ad get access to the admin page and so on. the broplem is no listing under ut servers nor the game Iam hosting. It does show up on lan and we can do a land party but not through the web no one can find my server. any help

I have gon to the tuts but did not find anything??

tnx

Your server needs to uplink to the master server for it to be listed. Generally, the port used for UT for this is 27900.

TNX Fearless however, I have enabled port 27900 on the wireless it is open.
What is the name of the Master Server and its location? In the console it is tring to connect to some servers that are no longer in operation?? It may be that I need to change the ini file to go to a diff. Master server than wow or mplayer or heat ect..

Tnx LittleHorn I will give all of this a try one step at a time and get back with yu if I don't tost everything LOL I have allready downloaded the new firmware for the roter but have not upgraded it yet I may dothat last.... hate doing all that resetting ya know!

[AnthraX]

is your server actually using a wireless connection to connect with the router?

[LittleHorn]

hmmm the screenshots i did were made with the new firmware installed, the layout will be different but the principle is the same - i hope you know what you are doing

I find it was easier to install the firmware upgrade before changing things

im sure youl get it right

[bwelsh]

WELLLLLLL I tried all the info but no luck I do have a diferent router than you tho I have a WRT54GS and it has the most current firmware installed. I did do the DMZ but still no workie as far as the Server showing up on the internet. Verry puzzeling.

to AnthraX yes and it works great in lan mode just cant seem to get it to show up on line. Iam using win 98se not wp this is a older puter.

I may have to go to linksys and post with their tech guys for input.

I will keep you all up dated when I get more input.

Bingo Thank You horn dog! It could be just the way you worded your message I don't know?? It is now up and running setting the main router to open set ports made it work like a champ! I don't have to DMZ anything. makes me feel more secure that way.. This server is made for beginers just learning the maps and how to have fun gaming on line good clean fun tnx again.....

If any one wants to check it out make recomendation on improvments ect. all your help will be greatly used. site is ONE BAD DOG password dog.

[LittleHorn]

yep you need the forwarding and triggering to make your router port all incoming clients from your external ip to your internal ip. i only use dmz because of my connection on the LAN.
