My friends can't see my server ( 1.60.136470 )

[Sokovald]

After two weeks without playing , I created a local server to play with my friends as I always did, but no one is getting to see the server. Since i've started play arma, my router is ok with fowarding, and always worked.
Someone else is with this problem?
Can anybody help me?

What local networking software are you using? Evolve? Tunngle? Hamachi?

None, as he uses port forward.

Yes, there is a "Remote" button somehwere in the MP screen - give them your public ip and they should see your sever. If not, then it could be that the firewall started to block.

My firewall is disabled, and through direct connect dosn't worked too

When you made the port forward, did you make sure that your PC have a static IP? Or did you just take the one you had the last time you played with your friends?

[Sokovald]

Yes, my pc have a static IP.

Well you could always use some 3rd party LAN software which is almost always a guaranteed success.

have you tried running the game in admin mode prior to running the server?

What you could do is to use another port. It must not 2302-2305, you can use any open port you want (just make sure you open the next 3 ports of that number too, e.g 25000-25003).

And in the firewall, do that the same.

This has been an ongoing issue for me as well. The simplest work around is to use tunngle and play lan games with your pals.

dont use that program ... your friend should portforward this ports 2302-2305 if his router has upnp then he doenst need to portforward but check his firewall tell him to make a rule for arma3server in those ports the problem is on the host end not yours avoid all those vpn trash you dont need extra programs

Actually it is his problem, because he is the host. And ke knows which ports he has to open because it worked already once. Have you read only the title :P?

The question is now why it stopped working.

Did you find a solution?

Use UPNP on the router and in game, give your friend a direct IP, Port and password. And double check to make sure your firewall or Antivirus is letting ArmA 3 to have inbound and outbound traffic. Joining through steam is pretty unreliable.
