I make a server in Hyperlobby using the Forgotten skies tab and I change all the settings to my liking and then I click save info and my friends join in the tabs below my name and then I click the glowing blue circle to start the server and then it loads up IL-2 and I can select if I want Dogfight or coop and what map and then I pick dogfight and a map but then all of my friends time out. I have tried to forward the 21000 port and they all still timeout.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post and help me.

Firewall issue perhaps?
Are you using a router?

Yeah, I have DSL so it goes through a modem then to my computer. I checked my firewall and It said it was unblocked and I even tried just turning off my firewall completely and it still doesn't let them.

J.Reb had a problem where he could not host although he could join any game.
He solved the issue, it was his router.
This was in a Page from J.Reb.
"the router had increased the address of the new computer by 1 digit
it evidentally could tell the comps were different
just changed the comp address the ports were set up for, by one digit"
I hope it helps.

Yeah, I got it to work. I opened the ports again and it worked out of no where. Thanks for the help though.
