My friend can't join my server
My friend can't join my dedicated server and when he tried he got a message says "Server is not responding", do I have to port forwarding my router? I was trying to, but the options I have in mine are this:
Type: Protocol: Remote host: Remote port range: Local host: Local port: Status:
so what should I type?
Best Answer
You should do port forwarding on your router to allow connection to your friend. For that you should enter the following information:
- Service Type: BOTH TCP and UDP (Usually Listed as TCP/UDP)
- Starting Port: 27015
- Ending Port: 27015
- local host : The ip address of your server, usually the one of your computer if the server is on your computer.
- You do not need to fill in Remote host

Why can my friend not join my minecraft server?
You need to have the same Minecraft version as your friend to join your server or vice-versa. You need to send your friends the Public IP Address of your server. You need to port forward in your router. You need to disable the firewall in your computer and on your router.How do I let my friends join my minecraft server?
Open Minecraft and go into the \u201cMultiplayer\u201d tab. Towards the bottom, click on \u201cAdd Server\u201d. Put any name under \u201cServer Name\u201d and then enter the server IP address and port, then press \u201cDone\u201d. After pressing done, this will take you back to the multiplayer tab, you should see the server now listed.Pink Sweat$ - At My Worst (Lyrics)
