[FIXED]connection restriction per IP?

Postby Cqnqrd » Thu Dec 10, 2009 18:24

Hi,

I'm a (casual) player of this server and last week-end, i wanted to play with my two brothers, but the server restricts 2 connections per IP !

I wonder why, and is it possible to disable that ... ? (or just increase by a slot).

Thanks, sry for faults ..

I suppose your problem is quite the same as the this one:

Not much, but see if it can help somehow.

as i understood smadjes prob was from his side, this one is from server side: ip_max_clients and can be changed by server owners, so time to wait icy/sley/cross :wink:

isn't it possible to give different IP's to your brothers over your router setup so they can join the same server with a different IP?

No, because most routers feature the NAT service, that makes it capable for the router to give different IP's within the local area network, but then collect all these and send it through 1 IP out to the internet.

The above problem is that the server restricts 2 ET players PR. IP address, so it is up to the server owners if they want to set it up to 3, if this is possible. I dunno ! ^^
If they want different IP's they gotta buy a whole new internet connection :P

I know that i can play with a different IP but it's laborious and a waste of time (we want to play, not to configure our network during 1 h :D ).

I just wonder if admin (so, you) could changes the CFG, which is significantly shorter :)

So i'll wait for icy/sley/cross (they are on the forum? I guess, but ...)

Thanks for answers (a living forum ! It's nice to see that on ET ..) :D

normally if you change the ports on your router you can fix the problem

no matter what the server settings are cause you connect from another 'place' sort of speak

ill see if i can find the solution for it somewhere


it was something with properties of ET.exe file

you had to add +port 27960 and something else

Oh yeah. Totally forgot. You could route one of your connection through a proxy server and get an other IP for one of your computers... Of course proxies are quite slow and you would have to get one fast enough for ET :)

Nope, i'm not admin of the router and i don't want to play with a wire[s]shit[/s]less connection :D

I just ask for server admins if it's possible to configure the server to permit that.

Probably busy with other stuff, I'll notify Ice again ;)

The server side var ip_max_clients is set to 3 by default anyway, so it shouldn't be a big problem to increase it.
