Have you been attempting to host Mars Needs Women for 10 minutes straight, but haven’t had any luck getting others to join? You might want to consider selecting a different netmap, or perhaps try port forwarding first.
How To Host In The Game Classic Marathon
Testing Whether You Can Host
Testing your ability to host netgames is facilitated by Classic Marathon. When you’re hosting, simply enter “.test” into the chat. If your setup is correct, you’ll receive a success message as shown. Otherwise, you’ll be prompted to port forward in order to enable gathering.
Locating Your Router Configuration Page
Locating your router’s configuration page is typically achieved by accessing 192.168.0.1, although this can vary based on your network setup. On a Windows machine, you can easily find this by opening the command prompt and entering “ipconfig”. Locate your network adapter and identify the IP address listed as your Default Gateway. Copy this address into your web browser, and it will direct you to your router’s configuration page.
Navigating The Port Forwarding Menu
Once you’ve logged into your router (typically, the initial login credentials are username “admin” with no password), navigate to the Port Forwarding menu. This is typically located under the “Advanced” section, but its placement may vary depending on the manufacturer of your router.
How To Start Port Forwarding For Classic Marathon
To initiate port forwarding for Classic Marathon and enable gathering netgames, follow these steps:
1. If your router doesn’t automatically detect your device on the network and requires the local/internal IP address of your device, you can find this in the “ipconfig” command from Step 2 of this guide. Look for your IPv4 address.
2. Once you’ve located your device, proceed to the Port Forwarding menu on your router’s configuration page.
3. Enter the following information:
– Port: 4226
– Protocol: TCP
4. After entering the details, click on Apply or Save to save the changes.
Congratulations! You should now be able to gather netgames. To confirm that everything is set up correctly, use the “.test” command as outlined in Step 1 of this guide.
