Port Forwarding
To ensure the router doesn't block the data traffic you must define a rule for that in the router settings.
​
The option for port forwarding is for the most routers located in the advanced settings.
There you must specify the IP-Adress of the computer, the port and the data traffic type.
​
To find out the IP-Adress of your computer, you must start cmd.exe and enter the command ipconfig.
Now you must search for the value IPv4-Adress.
​
You must allow TCP and UDP as data traffic types. If you can pick only one of the at a time in the router settings you must define two rules with the otherwise same data.

How do I reach the web-surface of my router?
To find out the IP-Adress of the router, you have to start cmd.exe and enter the command ipconfig.
​
Now you have to search for the value Default Gateway. If you input this value in the URL-Bar of your browser, you will reach the web-surface of your router.

Join Server
If the server was launched the host needs to tell the other players his public IP-Adress.
​
You can find out the IP-Adress the easiest on websites which offer this function.
The players who want to connect to this server must input the IP-Adress and the port on which the server is hosted on.
​
It's adviced to only share your public IP-Adress with people you trust.
