    Hello, I read lot of thread about but still not manage to make it works :(

    I really don't understand.

    My Router/Fibre box is locally on 192.168.1.254, public IP 78.193.86.218 ( magicfr.hd.free.fr )
    My PC where the rf2 Dedicated is launch is on 192.168.1.10

    I configured my router like this =>

    in the multiplayer.ini I have default values =>
    WAN Query Port="44297" // range is 1025 - 65535
    WAN Join Port="54297" // range is 1025 - 65535
    LAN Query Port="44297" // range is 1025 - 65535
    LAN Join Port="54297" // range is 1025 - 65535

    Here is the port read/write by rf2 Dedicated, with Comodo Dragon tools

    I can see my server on the list,but If I try to connect I get Server Connection Failed. My Friends have same error.

    Could you help me guys?

    Cheers,
    Seb

    I resolved , I had to forward port range 34000-55000 TCP-UDP to 192.168.1.10 to make it works for sure.
    Now I will narrow the range with what the firewall listed as used port.

    if you have open the right ports in the router maybe test allow dedicated server in the firewall and test start dedicated server as adminastrator

    Thanks for helping Tripp , but like I said in my 2ns post, I made it worked. I opened and forwarded a wider range for TCP and UDP. Also I have added a rf2Dedicated rule in Comodo Dragon firewal to accept In/out for TCP/UDP. But with only port 54297 and 44297 it didn't worked.Or maybe I had the step in a wrong order. I don't know.
    Can you confirm only port 54297 and 44297 TCP/UDP are needed?
    Cheers,
