    Did you added ports in exceptions of your firewall in Windows?
    It could be why they are blocked.

    The port forwarding doesn't seem to work. Do you have some kind of firewall enabled, try adding an exception.

    I don't have any sort of 3rd party firewall, and I followed the steps from the wiki meaning i added the new rules hing in the windows firewall advanced settings.

    but you can see that the port is not forwarded, so something went wrong.

    Well, after manually forwarding the port (which I've done before with a minecraft server, and worked) I downloaded a port forwarding program and after it forwarded the ports I checked if they were open, and it just stayed in the listening phase for like an hour, so something did go wrong...

    I have 2 options, one my ISP forbids server creation and a solution would be to plug directly from the modem rather than modem > router > pc. But I don't know if that would work really.

    Hello, I have some solutions for your problem. Lets go for the easy one first:
    Solution 1. Set this to "ALL", and at the same time, just uncheck the other KAG port. I'm not sure if this might work for you, but it did for me instead of set 2 of them with different protocal.

    Solution 2. I'm not sure if you already did this or not, but lets give it a shot because your ip address may change in some kind of accident.
    Step 1. Click on the Window Button on the bottom left corner of your computer:[​IMG]

    Step 2. Type in the search box: cmd and press Enter

    This window should pop up

    Step 3. Type in : ipconfig and press Enter
    A bunch of words should appear.

    Step 4. Take this last 3 digit and replace it with the ip adress in your port.

    I think you already know how to do this, but other player might have the same problem like you so I make this a little more details for them.

    Solution 3. Sometimes, the dedicated server is harder to use, so I recommend you check out this tool, trust me, it will love your life much easier!:
    https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/server-configuration-tool-with-a-gui.3336/ Recommended to use JacKD's version!

    Hope this help. Feel free to ask more question =) Enjoy KAG, scripting is comming up!

    I tried all of that before posting this I literally exhausted all solutions before asking for help, i guess I should buy a new router... also while JacKD's tool is pretty cool, I prefer vanilla :P

    Pretty sure you're going to have the same problems with your new router, but good luck.
