I've been trying to set up my router to allow a server and i think i'm close to getting it to work because i can see it in the lobby but it will not allow me to connect. these are my router settings:

port forwarding
---------------
public private type host
23073 23073 udp 192.168.1.100 client port
23074 23074 udp 192.168.1.100 server port
23084 23084 udp 192.168.1.100 download port

I've disabled my firewall and read through the sticky but still no luck

I run the dedicated server that comes with soldat 1.2.1 and and then open up soldat to try to connect to it from the same computer and the ping is always ???. when i click connect it shows requesting game... and does nothing. can anyone tell where i'm going wrong?

Thanx in advance,
Phil.
