Port forwarding

In order for other players to connect to your server, you must open a specific port on your router. SCP: SL defaults to port 7777, so we highly recommend this is the port that you open. Additionally, you must open your port for UDP, not TCP or TCP/UDP.

The Northwood Technical Support team cannot assist you with Port Forwarding, as every router is unique. We highly recommend opening a discourse with your Internet Service Provider (ISP)’s support team, or with your Router manufacturer.manufacturer for support.

In most cases, however, simply typing “How to port forward (Router Name)” into Google will yield a comprehensive tutorial.tutorial such as this.

If you are sure you port forwarded correctly, please follow Tutorialthis fromguide googleto check if you are behind a CG-NAT.

We do not provide support for port forwarding due to how different it may be for each router.
