Ports not opening

[Kegan]

Hi all,

 

I am hoping someone can help me, I have my TCAdmin on a server I rent with OVH, there support has been less than helpful.

 

Issue I'm getting is that I am creating rules to allow ports for game servers, yet the game servers are not working.

 

Using http://canyouseeme.org/ shows them as closed. I have disabled the firewall, still same issue.

 

Also TCAdmin shows 0/0 players, I even created a rule to allow 2302 for arma 2 and magically my ark server on port 7777 suddenly stopped working. If anyone knows what I'm doing wrong I would really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.

Make sure you've enabled support for Windows Firewall in the server's Router/Firewall Settings tab. After this, restart the monitor and all of the game services.

I just disabled the gaming firewall. Otherwise, you could open every port that you know you're going to use.

For example, CSGO is using port 27015 by default, and the port increment is 10, so you'd open port 27015, 27025, 27035, 27045 and so on. Do the same for query and rcon ports for all games.

OVH also has an API, so you could possibly create a script that opens the exact port when a new game server is created.
