Reinhard has submitted a ticket

Versions: SPT 3.11.3 & Latest Fika
Networking: Port forwarding
Description: Confirmed accurate port forwarding in router. 25565 for UDP and 6969 for TCP precisely. used FikaUtils on both ends to confirm that firewall inbound and outbound rules are perfectly good, followed the guide to a tee using WAN IP in SPTarkov data http.json and fikaserver config, screenshots can be provided of server host and client attempting to connect. vanilla files just 3.11.3 and latest fika, that is all. i just simply can not connect.

Using portchecker.co it says the ports are closed, but that doesnt make any sense because host also port forwarded for Killing Floor 1 and it also would absolutely not work without port forwarding done and the exact same steps we are doing here for SPT/Fika for router and firewall and it works perfectly fine despite portchecker.co reporting the KF1 related ports are closed????? it makes no sense.

we have hosted SPT before on a previous version and done the exact same steps and it worked flawlessly

If that's a public IP it shouldn't be posted here. Also, you should read over the #1204039574314295296 as things have changed

portchecker.co will only work to detect an Open port for a TCP service that currently has the server running. if Killing Floor is a UDP port forward or if the KF2 server is not currently running it would report as Closed. 25565/udp will always report as Closed.

6969/tcp + spt server open will report as Open if both the port forward rules and firewall rules are correctly done.
