The next step for you is to figure out why your connection is blocked. These are the ports required for listen servers:
-URL ports
-Port=7777
-PeerPort=7778
-OnlineSubsystemSteam Port
-GameServerQueryPort=27015
-OnlineSubsystemUtils.onlineBeaconHost port
-ListenPort=15000
You can try to open these with your router / modem, to see if that fixes the issue.
You are the first person that I have come across who has this issue. If you continue to have issues with people not being able to join, you may want to call your ISP and see if they block ports from being used.
my friend tested the project with his 2 pc’s on his network and it worked also he has the same ISP as me, but when i try it with my laptops on his network its not working
you have any idea how this is possible?
just a question: have you used 2 steam accounts for testing LAN? when i not start steam on my 2 computers i can find and join a match, when i start steam i can find the host but my pc that want’s to join do no travel to it.
We have not heard back from you in a few days, so we are marking this post as Resolved for tracking purposes. If you are still experiencing the issue you reported, please respond to this message with additional information and we will follow up.
I have a project in which I had steam sessions working using the Engine version 4.14. After some problems I updated it to version 4.16 which solved most of the problems, however I started having some problems with the multiplayer connection.
I am searching for both lan and online sessions and the client finds one lan with ping 9999, which times out when trying to join the session.
After finding this post I downloaded the ah500635 project and opened it with engine version 4.16 using the development build. The error persists.
I am using two computers on two different networks, with two different steam accounts on one I use the j key to create the session and on the other I use the k key to join the session. I get the failed to join error"
I’m using the steam id 480 since it was working on the previous version.
Please let me know if this is not the correct place to post this problem.
