i realize that this is a 8 month old thread, but I thought it might be better off for me to continue this thread instead of making a new one =p
Freya server (but same for other servers too)
l2j version = 4420
builddate = 20101007_2306
l2db version = 7668
builddate = 20101007_2301
(but same problem with other versions in general)
I have exact same problem as dar3k. As I was using search, I found this thread.
I can only connect to my server using 127.0.0.1 as external ip. When I use my external ip from whatismyip.com I cannot connect (other cannot connect to my server either). It was working fine on my test server (well I only have a test server), and this problem occurred all of sudden.
I'm assuming the problem is that my ports aren't opened.
when I check
http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and put in 2106 and 7777, it said
Error: I could not see your service on 76.201.125.116 on port (2106)
Reason: Connection timed out
OS: vista 32bit
I'm not using router, but I am using an antivirus problem called alyac 1.54 - I hear that some times antivirus programs can block ports. anyways, I tried closed it and running, but no luck there.
I also have windows defender, but if that causes a problem im sure it's already addressed here.
here's my ipconfig.xml
<!--
Put old contents of ExternalHostname here, used by default
-->
−
<gameserver address="76.201.125.116">
<!-- Localhost access -->
<define subnet="127.0.0.0/8" address="127.0.0.1"/>
<!-- LAN's, put old contents of InternalHostname here -->
<define subnet="10.0.0.0/8" address="10.0.0.0"/>
<define subnet="172.16.0.0/19" address="172.16.0.0"/>
<define subnet="192.168.0.0/16" address="192.168.0.0"/>
</gameserver>
After opening ports using port forwarding and opening them in my firewall (both TCP and UDP),
when I check online for ports 7777 and 2106, they are closed. I used these websites below
http://openportchecker.com/
http://www.canyouseeme.org/
http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/
This is how I port forwarded

Could it be that something else is blocking these ports? Sometimes they appear as open, but sometimes they appear closed. Either way, when I log in L2 with 127.0.0.1 as ip, it works (when I use
127.0.0.1 L2authd.lineage2.com
), it works
, but when I put the external ip instead of 127.0.0.1 , it doesn't work (same goes for other people other computer within my house. How do I open these ports?
and lastly, I don't have static ip.
