[TUTORIAL] Hosting an Online CO-OP Server. Thread - Pokémon3D

Step 1. Download portforward.com/help/setup_static_ip_address.htm software to set your computers static IP address.
Step 2. Set your main IP address (Should be called either Local Area Network, or Wireless Internet Connection) to a static value of anything you want. Just make sure it's not the same as anything else. Write down this number.
Step 3. Go to your internet browser, go to your routers IP address, in most cases, '192.168.1.1'.
Step 4. Look for an Advance tab.
Step 5. Look for a Port Forwarding Tab, this could be named any of the following: NAT, Virtual Server, Gaming, Rules, Forwarding, Ports
Step 6. Add six new rules, make sure both UDP and TCP are selected, you might have to choose this in a drop menu. For each of these rules, set Forward to internal/IP/Computer to your static IP you set before.
Rule 1: Port 15124
Rule 2: Port 53249
Rule 3: Port 53250
Rule 4: Port 53021
Restart your router, go to the game, click on the computer in your room, and press 'Host'.
Now anyone can connect to you by typing in your external IP address found at whatismyip.com.
Step 7. ?????
Step 8. Profi......hackers.

Mines was a lil different from yours I had to click a different tab to get to my port forwarding. But I am confused on what to place in the internal and external ports any help please?

Put the same thing in each one and make sure to tick the 'enabled' check box.
After this, start a multiplayer game and to check it's working, google 'open port check tool' and check the port 15124 is open whilst running a server.

Do you mean put the 15124 in both the internal and external and so on with the other 5?

Put each port the same for internal and external.

Alright thanks man! As soon as one of my friends gets home I'll see if it goes well.

what does this do?

It allows players to connect to you ingame using just your external Ip address so you don't have to use hamachi or another LAN program.

Hm... i used Hamachi, but only one friend could connect... the other can't
