First time port forwarding

Postby LOLCHRIST » 31 May 2012, 12:23

Hi, I'm failing to connect to any lobbies using FA Forever, and would appreciate any help/advice on getting it working.

Background info:
Trying to use a Supcom 3599 retail install (the posted log is from that). Have also attempted with the Steam version.

Can connect to LAN games and Steam games without issues. Never actually tried playing on GPG.

Game port is set to 6112 with UPNP off. I've tried turning on UPNP and working with different ports, but it didn't fix anything.

Connections incoming to ports 6112, 9103, and 30350-30351 have rules sending them to my computer for TCP/UDP. The PortForward.com port checker won't seem to install for me, so I can't test them properly.

Router is running on http://www.pfsense.org/

The log file from the failed connection attempt: http://pastebin.com/j394rUNp
Connections in my router's firewall log: http://pastebin.com/iUmQbzgU

So my guess at the moment is that it's failing due to those 5 connection attempts blocked by the firewall, but what's actually going on here? Why have I got incoming connections on port 30761? That's not specified anywhere, and I get a different random destination port with every connection attempt. What am I not understanding?
