First make sure you put working settings in server.ini/subbill.ini so that you can enter, after that you can start fixing your router's settings to make it a public server.

Don't be so damn stubborn, that's not going to help you here.

First make sure you can actually enter your server on your own system, then you can open your router and let people enter it from the web.

Manually add your server as "127.0.0.1" and the port your server runs to the server list in Continuum.
Try to enter and see if everything works.

Maybe you can try determining your router's IP by doing the following.
Go to start -> Run.
Enter "cmd" in the box which popped up and click OK.
In the black console which showed up type "ipconfig", the primary gateway's IP address there is probably your router's IP.

Try connecting to the router with telnet, or better yet read the documentation on how to configure your router (don't tell me you bought it in a back alley and had no manual).

telnet connects a few seconds and then closes, and i live in a apartment.
We have one connection for 40 people.
I dont know what router we have. I just have a paper that has connection speeds and stuff..but no router info or anything.
The router is not in my apartment.

Haha that sucks, but isn't it possible that your server is reachable from the net already?
Or, if not, isn't there someone who can get to the router's settings?

If you want to continue you have two options, move house or get a 3rd party ISP.

Or find the room the router is in, reset all the settings, then forward the ports.

hm thats not a good idea

Ill better call them and ask for router IP

Solo Ace - Sun Oct 10, 2004 1:13 pm

Even with the IP you probably won't be able to login/change settings.
Get away from that shitty internet connection.

The download speed is fine
LAN T1 500kb/sec , sometimes 1mb/sec
Can go eaven to 2mb/sec if there are not much ppl online.

Post subject:

I didn't say anything specific about the speed, you're just connected in a bad way (well, for running services).

Is that what they call a T1 there?

if i would change connection..i could get a server up..but with a shit connection so..whats the point..this one is good to host myself

Solo Ace - Sun Oct 10, 2004 6:22 pm
Post subject:

The point is that you can't open ports to get a service available from the internet!
