LAN Server works, but can't get the game to show up online.

You'll want to make sure you've made the proper exceptions within Windows Firewall, if they've not been made already, usually this happens automatically after you receive the prompt the first time you run the application and you click allow.

Secondly, you'll want to make sure you configure port forwarding on your router side as well. This will vary from model to model, so I can't instruct you on how to do this for your particular setup without knowing more about your particular network setup (mainly router model, and modem(some modems have built-in router functions including NAT)).

You'll want to make sure you enable the following ports:

3724 (TCP)

8766 (TCP/UDP)

27016-27030 (UDP) 

 

You can also ensure that you're computer is listening on those ports when you start the server by typing in the following command in a command prompt window:
netstat -a

Also don't forget to open the two ports you intend for the server itself to use.

Or to make things simple, download a program called cPorts, it lists all the ports currently open in certain programs just like through netstat
