[1.7.1][8482] No MP connection possible, no Game Server ID issued, no games found

[hawkclz]

Hi,

when using the Bradbury Beta and wanting to play with my wife, I was able to create the game, but never received a game server id. She could find nothing in the server list, and me neither.

DLCs used:
- Anniversary Portraits
- Creatures of the void
- Horizon Signal
- Leviathans
- Utopia

No mods used

Bug is always happening using 1.7.1, no games in multiplayer game browser and no game server id.

If anything else is needed, just ask.

Thanks!

Kind regards
Christian

Did you both make sure the new stellaris.exe is allowed through all firewalls you might have active?

 

[hawkclz]

Good morning!

As the version before was working I did not additionally check.
When I checked this morning, Stellaris is entered in the Windows 10 firewall for inbound traffic of TCP and UDP. I tested deactivating the firewall, no change of behaviour.
Found no different exe

We are in the same network, both Win10. We have an AVM Fritzbox Router where I couldn't find anything too.

Hi,
i think im running in the same issue.
Im also on win10 and having a FritzBox (6490 cable for me).

If im hosting a save game it shows me a server id in the tool tip, but no one is able to join me.
Running MP in 1.6.1 works fine.

Maybe another important note:
I have an ISP with IPv6. So no native IPv4 is possible.

#edit:
Okay thats the trick.
After ive created a game over a mobile hot spot with IPv4 only, it works...
To bad that my ISP does not serve IPv4 addresses. So if there is no fix for that im no longer able to play stellaris, if this patch goes live... (im playing stellaris most time with friends in MP)

Hi @hawkclz thanks for report, I'm adding it to the database for the MP team.

Hi,

Fritzbox 7560 at my side, but the box shows an IPv4 from the ISP.
I can also agree that using a mobile connection solves the problem.

Can you provide information on the ports and protocols needed so I can test changing the firewall settings in the Fritz?
Thanks!

Kind regards
Christian

Hi,

Ive looked into the logfile and saw some upnp requests to my fritzbox.
Due this i checked if its wokring if im enabling upnp, and voila it works.


@Grundsatwork: Which Ports are needed for stellaris? If ive enabled upnp stellaris does not add any visible rules (or my fritzbox does not show them). Then i would check if its working with port forwarding/firewall rules and w/o upnp

UPnP was activated on my box but did not help.

Ports would be great

Kind regards

Hi there,

Have you double checked that your steam account and paradox account are actually linked correctly, As i had something similar and it was due to my accounts not being linked correctly, log into you paradox account and check there.

 

[hawkclz]

Hi, just double checked, and connected again. Still not working.

Hi,
just as double check, the fritzbox has one time the option to supply upnp information to clients (locates in home network -> advanced) and one time you can activate that an application is able to add rules (internet -> sharing -> port share [or how its called in an english interface).
For me it was nessecary to allow new upnp rules.

greetings

I also gladly take the german ones But I think I found that and tested it already. Didn't request any port activations either.

The new patch resolved this issue! Thanks a lot!
