Please note that there has been a lot of frustration about how to properly setup this game to allow for online connections, resulting in many rumors and false information (even from the readme file itself: some ports listed there are actually never used). 9989 UDP (in/out) - game broadcast port for LAN play only.27900 UDP (out) - Gamespy info broadcast, used for public hosts.29900 TCP (out) - Gamespy persistent connection.However some firewall/router configurations might be more restrictive, so if you still have troubles to connect and/or host, you have to manually open the ports above and the following additional ones as well: In most cases it is not necessary to specifically open these ports, as this is an outgoing connection that routers usually detect and open properly. In addition the game opens the following connections to the internet. 7777 TCP/UDP (in/out) - actual game data port.To be able to host and play games, the following ports need to be forwarded to your computer (See wikihow or for help): Otherwise, it simply ignores all incoming requests (like people trying to join your game).īorderlands uses only UDP connections for hosting and running games, TCP/IP connections are used only to connect to the GameSpy servers. When you have a router sharing your internet connection between multiple computers, the router holds the single address that the outside internet can see, so you must tell it which ports should go to which computers. Ports would be doors, in this comparison. Your house has an address (Just like your IP Address), but you can't just walk through the wall. Ports are numbers that represent entry points to your computer from the internet. To host (and sometimes join) online/games, ports must be opened. Otherwise, try forcing the correct interface to be used. If you are trying to play on LAN (Either real or virtual), but cannot see games you know are there, try directly connecting.(You can also try leaf networks, remobo and teamviewer vpn.) If you just want to play with your friends, consider either using GameRanger, Hamachi, or Tunngle.If you want to join public games, but do not want to use gamespy, use GameRanger.If you cannot join public games, make sure the host has configured their router.If you cannot host public games, but do want to use gamespy to do it, first configure your router.Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.

Overusing our search engine with a very large number of searches in a very short amount of time.Using a badly configured (or badly written) browser add-on for blocking content.Running a "scraper" or "downloader" program that either does not identify itself or uses fake headers to elude detection.Using a script or add-on that scans GameFAQs for box and screen images (such as an emulator front-end), while overloading our search engine. There is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support nor have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may cause your IP to be blocked indefinitely. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic. Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests. If you are using the Brave browser, or have installed the Ghostery add-on, these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse, then send that data back to a third party, essentially spying on your browsing habits.We strongly recommend you stop using this browser until this problem is corrected. The latest version of the Opera browser sends multiple invalid requests to our servers for every page you visit.The most common causes of this issue are: Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests.
