try to disable firewall for the test

#

nope, only host matters.

#

If it's not firewall then it's port forward, FYI TCP should be done clearly without UPnP

#

??

wary stratus
#

have you restarted router after?

stone plover
#

Let's try it

#

didn't work : /

wary stratus
#

No clue then.

#

I can only recommend switch to radmin for time being, you are free to use portchecker websites or tool provided in #udp-tester to test UDP for reference.

#

Only possible issues that could come up with settings up a direct connection.
Internally - Your machine settings, firewall, check ipconfig, see if the port listens in netstat.
Externally - Your router port forwarding, UPnP and your friend being a dumbell inserting IP not in the place he should, or with typos, or with no port, or with no http://.

my friend cannot connect via either,

wary stratus
#

153.153? you have different one tho.

#

and internal is obviously accessible.

stone plover
#

gotchu

wary stratus
#

The fact you cannot connect to yourself using external might be either meaning that you don't have a loopback or your ports are still closed.

#

So..yeah.

stone plover
#

yeah my network engineer friend said there might be no loopback which would be weird.. but.. the ports are open AFAIK

#

its strange

#

thats the bottom of my ipconfig

wary stratus
#

Huh...Default gateway in IPv6

#

Now this is interesting...
You have external in IPv4, internal in IPv4, but for some reason you also have IPv6 in gateway...
I'm lacking brain wrinkles to understand why would IPv6 be in semi local domains, and is it even relevant to the issue.

stone plover
#

I think... I'm going to come back to this tomorrow, maybe VC trouble shoot or ask my network engineer friend for some help

#

Thank you for the troubleshooting so far : )
