[RESOLVED]DCS 2.5 - can't see MP servers (Actiontec router)

Recommended Posts

I have DCS World 2.5 with Harrier, F/A-18, Mirage, etc.. purchased from steam.

I have Verizon ActionTec MI424WR-GEN3I router and FIOS service.

I use windows 10. ipconfig returns the following:

Windows IP Configuration

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :

I entered my router settings > advanced > port forwarding and added the following rule:YyU5yid.jpg

 

 

I restarted the router and DCS. However, the server list is still empty. Did I miss a step? Is my configuration off? Any other tips?

 

 

Thank you!

Hi

 

It should work,

 

what about windows firewall, is it allowing inbound and outbound connection for DCS?

It turned out that I needed to be logged into my Eagle Dynamics account at the start (using Steam version).

 

Thanks for the insight, this way we all learn about possible issues :thumbup:
