Co-op/ private server issue - solution!!!

[2/JG26_Kopkacik99]

Greetings to all IL-2 great battles pilots.

 

Many of you are surely solving the problem that you want to play with a friend on a private co-op server, but after creating a server/lobby, your friend cannot connect to you. I was also dealing with this exact problem, I was desperate, so much so that I was tearing my hair out. But I managed to solve it in the end. The solution is basically simple.

The solution!

First, you need to open ports on your router. (port forwarding)
Specifically, ports 28000 and 28100 TCP and UDP. Many of you will now say to yourself "I did that and it still doesn't work". The fact that you can't do it is because your Internet provider did not allow them. Many people do not have a public IP address at home, and that is a problem. The solution? Pick up the phone and call your provider's technical support and tell them you want to open ports 28000 and 28100 TCP and UDP. It takes about 5 minutes and the problem is solved.

Do not forget to set rules on your firewall, otherwise it will not working!!

This solution also works for Rise of Flight!!!!

 

I hope it will help you and especially save time and nerves.

 

 

Enjoy the game and bye!
