Others cant connect to my Quinn server
When you start a server, clients on the local network can see the server immediately under your computers name. This only applies if both computers are in the same subnet, i.e., there must be no router in between. Otherwise, clients must know your computers IP address in order to connect.
Here are some possible reasons why connecting might fail:
If clients in the same subnet cannot see your server
- Your firewall may block connections on ports 31459 thru 31463. See Configuring your firewall for running a Quinn server. To find out on which port Quinn is actually listening, open the network log (Network > Show Network Log).
- There may have been an error publishing your server. Open Quinns network log (Network > Show Network Log): There should either be a line reading Server has been published via Bonjour, or some error message.
If clients cannot connect to your server
- Your firewall may block connections on ports 31459 thru 31463. See Configuring your firewall for running a Quinn server. See Quinns network log (Network > Show Network Log) to find out which port is actually used.
- The client may be running an older Quinn version. Please see the version compatibility table for more.
