Pixelstreaming "starting connection to server please wait"

Hi All,

My name is and this is my first post. Actually, i have created an streaming app with pixelstreaming but i have some troubles. I have tested app in my local network and it works perfectly, it works on PC, MAC and Android (i dont tested it in a iphone).

So, i put the streaming app to my online server, i followed all the instructions, i open every port that recommended and i think that everithing is okey but i have some issues (i hope tha anyone can help me) i can play the streaming game but with some restrictions. If i connect from my home, works perfectly, if i connect from my friends home works perfectly if i connect from my family home works perfectly but…

If i connect from my company network it stuck on “starting connection to server please wait” If i connect from my 4g mobile it stuck on “starting connection to server please wait” If i connect from a coworker home, it stuck on “starting connection to server please wait”

Im not a network expert but looks like… Some isp block my server? My server dont allow some connections? My server Block 4g or low bitrate? Or probably, i have a bad server configuration.

Anyone have a similar issue? Or anyone can help me? Thanks everyone!

Anyone know?

Hi, i will update this case. I have resolve the problem partially. At the begginning i only open the referenced ports in the unreal documentation but this doesnt work for me.

I build a DMZ to my server and streamer (same pc) IP and… It Works!!
Now, im working to other scene, with two pc.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Pamela, I’m having the exact same problem as you. I can get my test to work on localhost / wifi, but if I try to log into my online server, I get the Starting Connection to Server Please Wait…and it gets stuck there forever. I tried enabling a DMZ in my router and the same thing happens. Can you expand on your solution a bit more?

DMZ is the key!

Thanks you so much. After DMZ settings, It works!
I’ve been looking for this issue a week.
