NAT not opening on custom Ports
-
PFSense says connection refused. i've tested the source from WAN, Network all options, all I get is refused.
The device has a gateway of 192.168.1.1 (PFSENSE)
Outside of that there is no other device. it basically got Openreach Modem -> NIC1 (PFSense WAN) then it goes NIC2 (LAN DHCP) -> 8 Port Unmanaged Switch

see my edit... Put a box on your wan network of pfsense and do your testing...
As you can see from that edit - that site is not very reliable for what your speed is or should be..
Here just started download of file from one of my servers in the NL... I have a 500mbps connection seeing 53MBps down... My connection is fine - but that scott iperf showing junk..
You sure this was for me? I don't think i've mentioned anything about scottlinux?

Using Diagnostics > Test Port sourcing from the WAN interface might not work. I know there are issues testing pings to the inside like that apparently due to all the route-to and reply-to done on the WAN. Test it sourcing from LAN. Or any.

My bad wrong thread - how and the hell did that happen..

You can move around and the reply at the bottom is sticky to the thread you started it on.

Not sure what is interesting about the box not working... We knew that days ago when you saw pfsense sending syn with no answer..

It's more the fact its not even talking to itself.. That is the VM itself
-
Yeah again - we knew it was the BOXes problem.. Is the service even running? simple netstat show if listening..
-
Firewall has the accept rule in and out. Yet we can connect locally...... At this point i'm punching above my knowledge so any help is greatly appreciated.
-
Dude its NOT LISTENING on 7777 so no shit its not going to work!!
Is the software even running - look in your task manager, etc.
How can you expect to talk to a port that is not listening?
edit: Should really move this to General - since this from the get go has had zero to do with port forwarding on pfsense..
-
@johnpoz Try looking in the background at the green button. You don't need to get rude. I have clearly admitted that Its not working yes, and i'm punching above my knowledge, what more do you want from me? The server (ARK) is running,
-
Look at your netstat output. There is no listener on 7777.
-
It's NOT listening... Not sure what else you want me to tell you... You prob get better support on their forums on why the game is not listening..
Not trying to be rude here dude... But this has ZERO to do with pfsense.. As we have been saying from the beginning..

That's all very well. But you cannot blame me when I had it working on a Zyxel VMG8924 router and all ports forwarding and it was even showing on the master list. And now I move to PFSense because my zyxel is in a shorten term. 'Fucked' that the first thing i'm gonna do is like... ok why isn't firewall doing as told?
-
ok why isn't firewall doing as told?
Except it is.
The sooner you accept the problem is not on the firewall and look more closely at the server itself the sooner you will solve your problem.

Ever thought about getting the Title: Wise Old Owl?
Very wise saying that last bit x)
But no granted. I can see Firewall is doing exactly what its told just now need to figure out wtf is going on with the system. Sometimes this is why i prefer linux over Windows
-
Go to a forum that supports that software... Or game players that run it... This is a forum about pfsense and general networking... Not how to run game X on OS Y...
You might find 1 or 2 people here if you posted in the genera section about why your game isn't doing what your telling it.. But I would think there would be 1000's of other users on their forums that have maybe run into the problem already.
If you have a question about vlans, or firewall in general then sure ok - lots and lots of people here to help with that.. Some game server not so much...
Run your game on linux ;) https://ark.gamepedia.com/Dedicated_Server_Setup#Linux
here https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/
you prob get much better help over there.
