Can not get to work on either PC....

Post by fltbuff71 »

I was wrong before as i have started over and determined External IP address access to my HUB not working on either PC as Hosting PC....

only when i access directly via internal IP can I se planes

but when I use external IP (as shown on attachment) I can connect to HUB with proper 6112 port forwarding on for udp and tcp

BUT .....

Hub view sees my session and number of planes

BUT...
AIRCRAFT view empty

AND...
User view, not showing nickname, or JoinFS ver


I give up !

When connecting to a host on the same network you need to use the local Ip address ( i.e 192.168.0.xx)of the hosting Pc. Using the hub list or external IP to connect will result in issues you are seeing. Regarding Port forwarding, use UDP only. Using TCP and UDP doesn't work

Thanks
But I am on a food network my iPhone hot spot
I don’t think anyone else out there can see my planes so I was testing it

In the past I could test this way and was able to see all my planes

Any ideas on that

See if you can get to my hub usahops major lightning

I would be inclined to say its a port forwarding problem if you can't see it via your mobile connection.

I've used a mobile network to test my hub in the past, one thing i have noticed is there can be a quite a delay with aircraft showing up. Also in "users" right click and make sure you allow everyone mutiple object if you want to see AI. AI is now turned of as default

Thanks again ...
to blue ice for taking the time to log onto my HUB and letting me know it WAS working with my user plane and my many AI planes that created with AIFP3 !!!

oh well, waiting did not do it...

I even changed my hotspot on iphone from wifi to usb connected, and had 10mbps download and .67 upload ... nothing

It sees the number of planes (59) on the hub view, but under aircraft and user, nothing, not even my userplane.

So... must be something with using hotspot, that used to work, and now does not and

I have spent enought time on this ....

I will take my laptop out on one of my PC jobs and use customers wifi to verify my HUB functionality from time to time.
