Friends can't connect to my server

[moltke24]

I was at my parents house and all my friends were able to connect to my server through the internet while i was at the house, however now that I'm at my place they cannot connect. I use hamachi and run a minecraft server which they were all able to connect to as well at both locations but can only connect to everquest when in the same place.

i also took down the minecraft server to make sure it wasn't interfering.

Have the ports open on your router?

They can see my server, but when they try to connect their game stops responding and goes back to the log in screen.

I use a mac router and I'm using hamachi, so I've tried port forwarding before, and I've been able to get to my modem and everything was opened at least i thought so since I followed their directions. But don't really know if that's the issue, since they can connect to my minecraft server...

I went through this video, for my airport extreme and opened port 7778 is that the one that needs to be opened or others?

[Tabaluga_Dragon]

that is the chat and mail server port

[Tabaluga_Dragon]

port forward this range 7000 to 7100 and 9000 try that.

[moltke24]

My friend says that they are getting error 1017 and says to rerun the update...

[Esildor]

I think if you get error's connecting to an EQ server on emu it's just throwing a generic EQ error that would mean something on Sony servers(?)

Sounds like a port forwarding issue to me. If you can connect no problem from your comp and they're unable to.

[moltke24]

Should i be placing the port numbers in both the private and public udp and tcp ports?

[moltke24]

so i still cant get my friends to connect, I'm running hamachi so they can connect to my minecraft server. does hamachi interfere with my everquest server? can i use hamachi so they can connect to my everquest server?

[moltke24]

I bought a port forwarding program, i had the program open all ports that you guys said to, 7000-7100, 9000, 3306 and 7778. I have abandoned using my mac router and am directly connected to the modem.

Does logmein hamachi cause interference?

is there something else that isn't ports?

Everyone can connect to my minecraft server no matter where i am

Everyone can connect to my everquest server only when we are in the same building

they can currently see my server in the listing but when they try to connect their game freezes and takes them back to the log in screen.

[moltke24]

in my config file does my host ip need to be my external or internal ip cuz both are different as seen here?

<!-- Chatserver (channels) information. DO NOT EDIT -->
<chatserver>
<host>(does this need to be internal or external ip?)</host>
<port>7778</port>
</chatserver>

I have two IPv4 internal addresses one external ip address and 1 router ip address, i can connect with both internal ip addresses, but have no tried the external ip address

anyone else want to try to connect? my server's name is Moltke's world. I'm leaving the server up incase someone wants to try and see if it works.

[Uleat]

Someone had a vid-streaming app that also used port 9000 that was causing issues...

Make sure that nothing else is attached to the required ports.


(You are using the EQEmu login server explicitly, correct?)

[moltke24]

Yes i am using the eqemu login and i told them to make sure theirs were updated

here are my ports:
