First off: you may need to 'forward ports' through your router;
*windows+r , type cmd & press enter (
to obtain a dos box)
*type ipconfig & press enter;
>Default Gateway. . . . . . should be the IP Address of your Router. eg:
192.168.1.1
*open web browser and enter this 'Gateway' IP address like so:
192.168.1.1.
a dialog biox should pop-up asking for user/pass. Normally admin:admin works but each router is different. Google your router model + admin password to find yours.
>example search would be "
<your router Model>" +"
admin password" , this should suffice.
Next Visit this site :
Code:
http://www.portforward.com/cports.htm
...and find the game / router configuration needed.
once you have followed the steps needed for forwarding save (wait for router to reboot , in some cases)
Next check your
.ini has the following lines:
Code:
[IpDrv.UdpBeacon]
DoBeacon=True
BeaconTime=0.50
BeaconTimeout=5.0
BeaconProduct=ut
[IpServer.UdpServerUplink]
DoUplink=True
UpdateMinutes=1
MasterServerAddress=unreal.epicgames.com
MasterServerPort=27900
Region=0
save , close and reload server.
Good Luck.
