Making Server Public

[Slickshot 1,195]

I've recently created, edit, and started my own server and map.  It's a dedicated server, and I'd like my brother to be able to play with me, however, he lives in another town.  Unfortunately my server only shows up on the LAN tab, and not the internet tab in the WU browser.  I've followed the tutorials, opened the suggested ports from the WU wiki page, made sure both WU and the dedicated WU server were set to "allowed" in my PC firewall settings, but still nothing.  Anyone skilled out there that can walk me through this headache?  Thanks for your time!

Well there is nothing more to do than forward the Ports on your Router and make sure no Firewall is blocking anything WU related.

Then there has to be something getting it hung up.

There have been some problems with steam earlier today, most servers didn't show on the list.

Guess I'll have to call the ISP and see if they're blocking ports.

Google for portscanner that could help you out too.

You could use something like Nmap Online to do some remote port connectivity testing. My WU server runs on port 3724 (the standard?), so in the list tab I just specified that, then got this result:
