    Hey.
    Have been playing Terraria for the last few days and been able to host games using my Meteor Huawei e180 and Hamachi to create servers.

    The game has updated and now uses port 7777 for games instead of 31337 which was working perfectly.
    People are saying "portforward", but since its a meteor modem dongle and not a router...

    any tips?

    As you seem to know already you can't port forward because there is nothing to forward. No point port forwarding from you PC to you PC.

    Is there any test in the game software to see if the port is "open"? Often if you telnet to your IP address and port number (from an external PC) you can get a responce that indicates the port is open or no repsonce if its closed.

    If you want to PM me your IP address in the next 30 mins and fire up the game I can see if I can see if I can see anything running on port 7777 on your PC.

    btw this isn't a firewall issue is it and can't be fixed by adding an a new rule or altering the orignal one for port 31337?

    checked firewall, nothing on there.
    its head wrecking, today we were all playing, now this update has scuppered it.
