Moved to <Support & Technical Issues>

Is it just your friends from Canada that are unable to join your multiplayer games? Can anyone else join you?

Haven't tried this , other people from russia, oekraien,Belgium. can join me.
we use to play a lot with our friends from Canada. but Somehow this isn't possible annymore.
I can join her game , but she can not join mine ????
does this have annything to do with the computer or route settings ?
I bellief it's something non local, as if she is on a different server when she tries to join our server.
my belgium friend is having the same problem. he can join her but she can not join us ???

Just to be clear, is it a single player in Canada who is unable to join your games, or have you tried with multiple players from this country?

I had the issue once where everyone could join my games except one player. He could join other games, but not mine. There are other players who are affected by this issue; sometimes consistently and other times randomly. Unfortunately there are so many variables at play that it could be a long process trying to diagnose the source of the issue.

It could be a routing setting on your end of her end. It could be a local firewall issue (software, not router). It could be the way her ISP is routing traffic, or the way your ISP routes traffic. It could be an issue with CloudFlare, which is the content distribution network theHunter uses.

Have you forwarded theHunter port (32303) on your router to your LAN address? If not you could try doing that just to reduce the chances of NAT-related issues. If your router has a uPnP setting, enable it.

Hi StrandJutter

Im having a similar issue and im looking for a fix. Do you have any other info you could help me with? I used to not have any issues but then one day it just changed. Im guessing it might be the same issue. Hope you can help with the port thing, thanks in advance.
