Port not opening?

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Hello, i am relatively new to Unity, so hopefully this is not a dumb question. I am using this to create a server on the client:

Network.InitializeServer(32, 25001, !Network.HavePublicAddress());

For some reason when i go to an online port checker, and i type in port 25001, i get an error saying it is closed. This also is why my server can not be seen on the master server…I think. All examples i follow lead to the same issue.

The server is registered, but i do not get that the server is online. Why is the port not opening? I have disabled my firewall and port-forwarded port 25001.

Also, could i use a linux server (with no UI) to run a game server?

What do you mean? that is an IP address, not a port?

Sorry did not watch it was door. You have to use port 25000 and not 25001. Sought and took a few sites in Portuguese of Brazil and found an explanation of how to make the server on the client machine.

Why does it matter what port i use? If that is the only port i can use, then why does unity allow me to pick one?

Is your Port Forward placed on Right IP of the router? otherwise it will still block

Instead of using port 25001 try to use 127.0.0.1

That is an IP address NOT a port...
