| Hello, I've been trying to set up AOM TT server, but no luck.
GameRanger doesn't work as well. Even I forwarded 16000 UDP port on my router.
I've tried many many ways to launch AOM server, and failed all the time.
Hamachi doesn't work as well. My friends always get's 120 sec. Timeout.
I turned off Firewall as well as I opened all ports:
TCP: 28800 - 28805 UDP: 2300 - 2400, 6073
I've tried Override function in Target line as well as connectivity:
"C:\Games\Microsoft Games\Age of Mythology\aomx.exe" +OverrideAddress="5.xx.xx.xx" +directIPConnectivity
They always get 120 sec. timeout.
Is there anyone who has such a problem or know how to deal with it? I don't know where to look for answers.
My IP is not static, but Dynamic - Assigned by DHCP | |

| I hope you don't have hamachi and Game ranger opened at the same time! And there must be another problem, if you have some other network connection (i.e. VMware Network adapter/ a 1394 connection) You must disable them because AOM may take their IP. There is another thing, if you have a shared connection for internet (i.e. Local Area Network) This must be the only Network connection enabled, I post a snapshot as i have my connections disabled: | |

| hmmmm... I only had that problem once or twice because I forgot to disable hamachi when I wanted to play on GR. type "myip" on google and check your ip. I would say for you to try to put your ip on DMZ but I think it only works on static ips.... | |

| DMZ is an option at routers that opens all ports.
And if u have hamachi then 99% its the one that causing the problem.U cant have 2 connections even if they are virtual so i suggest that before using DMZ just disable Hamachi and it will work for sure | |

| Ok I will try to disable Hamachi and use only GameRanger. If incase it will not work, can I open all ports manually Like for example selecting TCP/UDP range from 1 - 65534? | |

| OK, I just see this topic now. If you forward a port as you said in your first post, you have to set up manually your private IP (e.G. 192.168.1.4) and then you forward the ports to this IP.
Because, in cas of DHCP, you private IP will change at each new connection... and you can get, for example 192.168.1.2 (so your ports are not forwarded anymore).
But the other people here were right, IP forwarding is not essential: what is required is to get your ISP IP (so public IP) in the top left corner of AOM when you host a game.
And if you get private IP or hamachi one instead of this public, try these actions to solve it. - In the case of hamachi IP : Disable hamachi network - In the case of private IP... it's more rare but there are some strange solutions (it depend on each case so I won't write them here because it's easier to loose connection than to solve this pb lol)
Anyways, ask your problem here and post some screenshots of your networks connections, because your network configuration is the key to solve your problem (for the moment, 100% of them have been solved, I think).
End of the tuto extract lol
See you soon Marzy and happy it works for you now ^^ | |
