Seridium,
My reccomendation would be to put everything back the way it was at the begining, since you have the eqemu_config.xml you probably used the automated setup. Once you add your server info in as the instructions show, your server should be working... the problem you need to address is actually in your network settings.
some basic info:
EQEMULATOR port: 5998 (port in your eqemu_config.xml file) this connects your server to the login server.
World Server port: 9080 and 9000 (incomming) - these need to opened on your router in the virtual server section to allow port forwarding to your EQ server - use your servers IP address (ie; 192.168.x.x)
World server outgoing: 7000 and up... depending on the number of dynamic zones your server spawns... you do not need to open these unless you have your router set to filter outgoing traffic which by default it wont be
The
only ports you should need to open on your router are 9080 and 9000. the 7000 range is outgoing only
NOTE: If you are using a DSL modem (or some cable modems), you will also need to log into it and set up port forwarding in the NAT section, or disable the firewall depending on the type. In your modem, it will tell you what it has assigned the ip of the router to... in my case it was 192.168.2.4
Most DSL modems can be accessed by logging in via
http://192.168.2.1
The dsl/cable modem is most likely your issue as it has a built in firewall that blocks the ports EQEMU needs by default... the easiest thing to do is bypass it by setting the NAT to forward all IP traffic to your router. Then your router port forwardign will work and you should be good to go.
