Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Re: Server unavailable on connect
« on: February 21, 2012, 11:40:38 am »
Hi,

Thanks for the responses. This is the output from nmap:


Starting Nmap 5.21 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2012-02-21 12:37 SAST
Nmap scan report for 9.168.173.62.host.static.ip.kpnqwest.it (62.173.168.9)
Host is up (0.12s latency).
PORT     STATE         SERVICE
7777/udp open|filtered unknown

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.56 seconds


I am using a wireless broadband (not 3G) modem connected to a broadband router.

What does the "filtered" state mean in the nmap output?  Could this be an issue?

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Server unavailable on connect

Hi,

I'm using the Linux client and I always get a "server unavailable or unreachable" error when I try to login.  The Laanx server is showing in the server list with a percentage number that bounces around (which I assume is some sort of ping).

After I have tried once I am unable to try again (which is slightly annoying) and have to quit and restart if I want to try.  Perhaps this could be improved to allow people to reconnect if their client disconnects?

Anyway, I'm connecting via a wireless router.  Do I need to enable some sort of port forwarding? 

Any help would be appreciated,
 Andy
