Re: (ASCEND) Nobody can see my QuakeWorld Server when I use Single IP Addr NAT
Hi gang. I found an old NG message from months back, and it was a guy
who had this problem and licked it. I did what he suggested and it
worked perfectly..
The answer was to set up a static port map to 27500 for QuakeWorld and
27910 for Quake 2. (UDP)
Now I can run single IP NAT and my buddies can find and play on my
server, in fact we just finished a game..
Hope this helps some other folks with this same problem.
