Hello,
I recently purchased a Buffalo WHR-600D router. I have tried for many hours to host on Terraria, but i can NOT get port 7777 to open.
I have...
1. Set my computer's IP address to be static, so it doesn't break my port forwarding later.
2. Logged into router settings, navigated to Games/Apps-> Port Forwarding and forwarded port 7777 for both TCP and UDP to that static IP address (Buffalo menu refers to your local IP as LAN-side IP Address i think)
3. Navigated to Firewall->IP Filter in router settings, and set 4 rules to allow port 7777. See below for one example even though there are 4 rules. (two rules for LAN->Internet and INTERNET->lan for both TCP and UDP = 4 rules)
Action Accept Direction: LAN→Internet
Source Address/Destination Address: All/All
Protocol: UDP port 7777
etc
4. Gone to local firewall settings and created two inbound rules and two outbound rules for port 7777 to allow
5. In windows firewall settings, i have clicked 'Allow an app through the firewall' and Terraria was already on the list and checked several times.
I start up terraria and host a game and go to canyouseeme.org and no matter what, it will not see me on port 7777. I have tried both in game hosting and dedicated server method with no success.
Am i missing something? Really frustrating.. any help is appreciated.
Wombatant.
