    Yes, if you read your screen shot you can see that you're port triggering and you have no port mapping (the description in your screenie for port mapping is "port mapping allows remote computers to connect to a specific within your private network") My interpretation of that is that you need to go to port mapping.

    When you go to rf2 multiplayer look in the LAN view (see pic). I can only see my server in that view but my mates can see it in WAN. This is a FEATURE of my router not allowing me to see my PC on WAN from inside the LAN network.

    Hope that helps.

    So is the server on the same PC as your client?
    Have you checked in your Multiplayer.json on your server to see if the ports you've opened are the ones stated in the json?
    "HTTP Server Port":64297,
    "Simulation Port":54297,
