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 . . .

 

 

Now, I KNOW it's my PFSENSE firewall.  Here is what I did:

 

1.  Port forwarding doesn't work at all.

2.  When I completely opened up EVERYTHING through the NAT, it works. So I know it's something in NAT settings under the OUtbound rules.

 

The question is what do I SPECIFICALLY NAT out to? I need the exact IP and PORTS that are needed for NAT, and WHAT PROTOCOL is being used. 

 

(I am not yelling just emphasizing).

Sorry for the delay in getting to this.     I am afraid I don't know much about PFSENSE.    Can you not switch it off completely for a short time to see if that is causing the issue?   I doubt this is anything to do with the outbound rules.
 
The problem with this game is that it uses quite a wide range of UDP ports for the player to player connection (8088-32000, or something like that).

 

It might be less work for you to use a VPN.  We have been recommending Windscribe as a free VPN and generally speaking people have had a lot of success with that. You get 10GB per month for free if you provide an email address and that should be enough for your playing needs.

When I try to telnet to your testing service, using port 16000, or 40000 telnet can't get through.  When I telnet to 30000 on your testing service it works.  So it is on my side, what would cause a block from my side to not establish this connection?  IT is defintely a NAT rule going outbound, anyone with more experience can help me with this>?
