Good Evening,

Im looking for some help with the LiF:YO server.
I downloaded, installed and have the server running on my Windows Server 2008 R2 box. The game has the CMD window open showing Steam Initialized.

If I connect via LAN 10.0.1.30:28000 I can see in the CMD window the connection, my computers IP and then I can log in with no issues.

If I attempt to connect via WAN PublicIP:28000 I get a "Your connection to the server timed out" message.
I also notice that the server CMD window does not show a connection attempt and my GlassWire network analyzer shows no activity from my home IP.

I have the firewall disabled on the server and the router. Its a test set up so im not caring to much about it at the moment form a firewall perspective.

When I go to the test my port sites it shows I have ports 28000, 28001, 28002 as open and responding.

On my router I have ports 28000-28002, forwarded to port 28000

What could be the issue? I want to connect to this via wan for my friends who are remote and I prefer not to use a vpn due to the performance decrease vpn's cause.

Is there any tests I can do or any thoughts on what might be the issue.

side note, my server does not show up in the Steam server list but I do see steam connecting to my server via my glasswire network analyzer.

Thanks!

You might need a firewall rule to allow ICMP protocol

The site has no firewall. Just a base Windstream DSL modem/router combo with no built in firewall in it.

Any thoughts on how to test if this is working? I can ping the site from a external source so at least that is working fine.

So you disabled windows firewall?

Yes windows firewall is disabled.

You might need to setup port forwarding for the port your running the server on.
