I've setted my dedicated server (Cetramod.it OpenArena Server) but it says a number port different than 27960 (the default one) in the masterlist http://dpmaster.deathmask.net/index.php?game=openarena. What's the problem ? I used the setting of net_port and net_qport to 27960 too but it didn't worked. HELP.

Do you pass them in the command line, or through inside the .cfg ?
You should try with command-line Wink

Also, check your port isn't already used by another server/application.

And finally, sometimes autoexec.cfg files conflicts with what you put in your server config. If autoexec starts the server first and uses the port, then you won't have the correct port set.

You should not set qport at all. It is a hack to solve a problem with cheap many-to-one NAT routers.

I looked at the master list but could not find you server....

My guess is that your computer is not on the real internet but behind a NAT box.

what does you computer think its ip is?
look at properties of your network connection to see what your ip is

than step 2. go to http://www.whatismyip.com/ and see if it is the same number.

If they are the same, then i dont know what the problem is.
If they are different, then that is the problem.

the server is on the list. I'm not behind a NAT, but the port used to connect for OA ded Server is always different .. about a range of 19000 - 30000.

up please !!

note that the server returns this

Code:
"net_port" is:"27960^7", the default

to enter the server people are using the "specify command" are using the IP:PORT as showed on the masterserv and not with 27960 port as the server says

- Are you completely sure u are not behind a NAT/router ?
- Are u on a virtual server or so ?
- Does the server allow direct port opening or does it act as a NAT ? ( mapped ports on the virtual net device are different of the real ports opened by the server to internet ) ?
- Is the UDP port 27960 allowed for incoming connection and not blocked ?

I'm behind a router

No virtual server settings interfere with OA ports

- Does the server allow direct port opening or does it act as a NAT ? ( mapped ports on the virtual net device are different of the real ports opened by the server to internet ) ?

NAT is enabled so I guess that's the problem ... it never caused problems with OA on my old router ... i changed it lately so I guess that's it. I guess I have to set a virtual server entry ... maybe an UDP mapping of port 27960 on my LOCAL ip (192.168.1.2) ... I tryed but it didn't solve.

- Is the UDP port 27960 allowed for incoming connection and not blocked ?

yes. I don't use any firewall (neither HW nor SW).

You have to explicitely forward the port 27960 also on the router.

Yes ... u have to select the Port Forwarding Option on the router , select your LOCAL IP and forwarding the port 27960.

If the final port showed on the dpmaster is different maybe the problem could be caused by the UnP service.

EDIT : try to set the start port to 27950 , since it's used to send heartbeat to the dpmaster.

It works.

It still sends a random port number to the master server but connecting on both ports work. This suggests that the router supports the Quake 3 server extension.

EDIT: Not working anymore

so, it works but keeps using a random port ... using this URL http://dpmaster.deathmask.net/?game=openarena&server=82.53.174.40:27960 I cannot access server stats ... I need to use a sort of RANDOM url depending on the port ... isn't there a way to solve this ?

Thanks a Lot ^^

You might want to see if "Quake 3" is an option in the application list in your router. The fact that it works out of the box suggest that the router knows how to handle Quake 3 servers but being a PAT router it assumes complete control on external ports.

It should be possible. I don't understand why the virtual server does not work.

Some guides on the Internet suggest that certain routers might need a few extra ports to get them to behave (sound not right to me). What router do you have?

When I've tried to setup a little server , I had such this problem ... but for me the server was marked as unreachable in the dpmaster list .

I've solved when I've set the Start port number to 27950 :

- Start Port Number 27950
- End Port Number 27960
- Port Mapping 27950

Finally the server was correctly showed in the dpmaster list as reachable.

Trust Wireless ADSL2+ Router (15898)

My settings are

port start: 27950
port end: 27960

and it keeps being random.

Mmm ... I don't think that Telecom Italia is blocking UDP port 27960 , isn't it ?

The guide on portforward.com does not have your specific router but suggests that including port 27965 is needed (I have no idea why) and that NAT must be enabled too.

NAT is enabled and Telecom Italia (my ISP) is not blocking any port ... I was using a D-link before and OA was workinf perfectly.



nothing changed
