I just found out last night I had a firewall security feature that was blocking many players from connecting to the servers. That feature is off now while maintaining the security I desire on the servers. I still need to reboot the servers but I suspect that with this issue resolved and with my new static IP making my IP address never change again that things will get even better soon.
I hate to consider how many players I've lost over the years do to a power out at my house and having my router get a new IP address. That makes my server appear offline to everyone who list them in their favorites. That won't happen anymore!
Then to determine I have been blocking out certain large ranges of IP addresses from connection was irritating. That is fixed now too!
I have found that I am slowly getting more and more time again to get to play and mess with the servers and continue to grow this UT community. Things just keep looking up here at the House of Hermskii and I'm grateful to God and all of you for that! Peace out folks!
I was blocking out players. Grrrrr!
