Richie Posted August 18, 2009 Author Share Posted August 18, 2009 Well i was stupid and used my port 4000 for utorrent to download a file with over 8000 peers and they all try to connect to my server now lol. So i shutdown my server and waited about 2hrs later and they still try and connect. This was interesting, and it doesn't eat up bandwidth to my knowledge, but it is annoying seeing all these IP's connect to me at once… So until that torrent is dead(Most likely never) im going to change ports now..

Zetasis Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Well I heard that with Utorrent people can somehow connect to your server without port forwarding. I'm not sure how it works though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetasis Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 So this does allow people to connect to your game without port forwarding? I'm still having a hard time figuring this out lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homicidal Monkey Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 change your eclipse server port to 4001 or 1337\. It is suggested that you do not use ports <= 80\. The ports >10,000 are recommended since they are hardly ever used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlord Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 @Zetta:> change your eclipse server port to 4001 or 1337\. It is suggested that you do not use ports <= ~~80~~ 1024\. The ports >1024 are recommended since they are hardly ever used.Fixed that.Regards, Godlord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
