the_mask Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Uh, dunno offhand, but doesn't your firewall notify you, when Rebellion tries to connect to the net and what port(s) it wants to use ? http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neigaard Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 Well not really as im running the "server" part, so my Rebellion is not trying to connect to anybody, but i gues i could try that and figure it out that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 If you're not the server for the session you want to play, then you need to enter the server's IP number, nothing more, no additional ports If your buddy with the server doesn't know his online IP, he can open a Dos Box and type ipconfig, then he should see all the IPs currently tied to his pc. http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neigaard Posted November 25, 2003 Author Share Posted November 25, 2003 Boy am I bad ad explaining myselfe. I do run Rebellion as the server (host), but I have a router which is my public IP address (and it has build in firewall), so I need to open up for the right port(s) and forward the(se) port(s) to my PC so that my friend can contact my Rebellion server (host).

Guest JediIgor Posted November 26, 2003 Share Posted November 26, 2003 If anyone does find out, I'd love to know this as well. I had not played Rebellion online for 4-5 years now only because my internet is connected through a firewall (on a separate comp). Sadly none of my real life friends are too inclined about playing Rebellion on a LAN either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandboxx Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 Port Trigger/Forward 2300! A lot of bothan spies (and advil capsules and frustrated "netstat -a"s) died to get us this information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
