It appears your router and/or connection is not capable of NAT negotiation.

==> You will need to use port forwarding and possibly configure a static port.

Press any key to continue . . .

 

 

As for additional info, i'm running pfsense firewall; and i could swear i setup unpnp and automatic natting correctly.

 

I did add all the TCP/UDP ports from https://portforward....-3-kanes-wrath/, including forwarding UDP 16000 and configuring it in game.

 

I am able to sign in, connect to lobby, join game, but unable to start the game and i sit there with either red signal, or nothing.

 

I attach some of the NAT settings i've enabled (and still had same result)

 

From what i can see (and from the same testing my friend has done) it definitely appears to be an issue my end, specifically with pfsense. Normally i'm fairly hot on configuring this thing properly and i generally don't have any issues.

 

If anyone is able to provide any advice or guidance, or documentation i'll go and try and figure it out.

 

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone have any advice? 

[foobycnc]

oh, right ok. Thanks for clarifying. Might explain why i got intermittent results if kanes wrath just wants to do what it wants

 

Enabling a DMZ would make me cry. But. I reckon i could do a whitelist IP on all ports. 

 

Would the connectivity be needed from myself to my friend? Would i need to whitelist the CNCONline servers too?

[foobycnc]

Thanks for the info. Yep; i fully understand the DMZ and its not something i'd ideally do, and i agree the port situation is a joke.

 

I can setup rules to at least help protect myself abit. Would setting up whitelist IP's against my friend and the CNC online servers be fine? or do i not need to whitelist them .

 

VPN isnt really an option. I'm here because we used to use hamachi but it just became a pain in the arse were some friends could see others and others couldnt or could see them. So i was hoping to use this service to solve that. Its mostly me thats the problem with your service at the moment due to me using PFsense and not a proper router, per say.
