java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out

Post by Vigabrand »

Were getting the same "java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out" error, I've read about everything I can find and cant get this to work. I've got windows 10, Maptool 1.4.1.7, were trying to connect with a friend that moved to Washington. I set up another laptop at home using a different wifi than mine and i'm still getting the error, we've tried turning all the firewalls off. So now what? O I should have added if I use the port finder you suggested above it cant see me unless I use 80, then the person connecting gets the message "Could not load campaign. com.cucho.hessian.io.hessianprotocolexception: unknown code for readobject at 0X48 (H)"

port 80 is commonly used for internet connection.
this sounds like the router has no ports open.
You typical want a port higher than 40000. The default port 51234 is perfect
now you want to setup your router to set that port open so you can get connections.

you can find more info here:
