Hi im wondering if you guys can help...

me and my mate Chris kasch set up a server for our own use.
Problem is we can set the serve rup but I cannot conect to the server... it say's connecting after 5 seconds it says.. connect timed out

its same if I set it up and he try's to connect to me

WHY?!?!

ha sbeen doing this for a while? any ideas welcome

Maybe firewall denies connection from outside?

You'll most likely need to forward some ports on your router.

You'll need to log into your router. Next, using both TCP & UDP, forward the port: 63392. The option to do this can be found under either NAT, Virtual Servers or Port Forwarding.

This should remove the error and people will be able to connect.
