[Phábio]

Hello, I'm trying to host a game and I can't because, apparently, my PC is not reachable, for some reason I don't know why. It also says to check if UDP port is open, but I don't know where to see that, can someone please me? I'm kinda desperate here!!!

Hello,

=> https://www.managames.com/tennis/doc/Te ... ml#network
then => topic8-3102.php

In short, the main advices are :
- try the UDP Port 80 instead of 4321 ; or try the UDP Port 54321 instead of 4321
- turn off your Firewall
- alternatively, delete Tennis Elbow from your Firewall, so it should ask you to add Tennis Elbow again the next time you play online
- set your router to "Forward all", or set your PC to DMZ (be sure you don't have security issue on your PC if you do that) ; if not better, try Bridge mode instead of Router mode (if your Router has a Bridge mode)
- check your Windows Network is a "Private network", not "Public Network" (Tutorial => http://www.opentechguides.com/how-to/ar ... -type.html ) ; or try to allow TE2013 in Windows Firewall even on Public network.

Update December 2020 : (only for TE2013, not TE4)
if you don't have a public IPv4 (ie: either no IPv4 from your ISP at all, or a private IPv4 encapsulated within IPv4 or IPv6 at your ISP level), then you won't be able to be joined by people using the server list.
You should still be able to be joined by providing your IPv6 to another player, which he should enter in the "Join Remote Game" IP. (I might have tested that a decade ago, so I'm not sure it's still working )

Update March 2022 :
If you're behind a CGNat, you'll never be able to host.

Update May 2022 :
I just got the dreaded "it was working before but now it doesn't work" ; after a lot of checking, I found out that the UPnP IGD service of my Sagem Router (from Orange ISP) wasn't working anymore..!
I was able to fix that by updating the firmware. Although it's possible that just turning it off and on again would have been enough.
Alternatively, it's possible that a factory reset could have helped.

Update April 2024 :
If TE4 proposes you to assign the Temporary IPv6, try it, it might solve your issues ; people who have only an IPv4 won't be able to join you though.
Alternatively, assigning your static IPv6 should let you very easily open the port in your router firewall (not a NAT / Port forwarding rule, really the IPv6 firewall) ; again, people who have only an IPv4 won't be able to join you.

Didn't work
I tried everything, this is the worst it has ever happened to me! Now that I was winning a lot of matches, a lot of ELO, and a lot of confidence :/ I really want to play this game again, but I don't have a solution anymore :s

Hi, I used to have this problem, then I opened the port 4321 on my router and it was solved.
I was then able to play online games...until i encountered an error that popped up (forgot what it said) when someone joined my game. When we played, the court was missing and it was all white (like playing on ice) and the bounce was weird. I forgot whether the problem affected only online games or also the AI matches.
I removed the recordings from the profile/demo and reinstalled the game, which seemed to eradicate the problem. However, the 'PC not reachable" error popped up once again though i checked and the port was still open. I am able to join other players' matches.
I tried changing the IP address to the "Detected IP" but its no use. I also tried to delete the opened port and re-opening it to no avail.
I don't know of any other ports I can use (I don't play any other online games).
Can someone help me with this issue (and also why do I keep encountering the ice-court error)?

You also have to allow the program to have internet access via Windows Firewall -- uninstalling and then installing again will remove that.

For "ice court" problem I don't know, sounds like a problem related to graphics card or graphics settings: Latest graphics card driver? Is T&L put to "Mixed" or "Hardware"? Is the game modded?

[TMF]

ah managed to solve the problem by using port 80 instead. Did this before but it was probably before i reinstalled the game.

The game isn't modded.I have the latest graphics card driver. My T&L processing is set to mixed. is that the problem? Should it be hardware?

[SuperChunky]

Hi, I have this same problem since I bought the game two years ago. I tried to open the port 4321 and didn't work. Can anyone help me or recommend me to do?
Thanks in advance

To open the ports, where can I get the username and password? Because it's not admin... :S

[zrinkecsportnet]

Can somebody help me i cant come in any room because ping is too high, but probably something is wrong with my ports. I was in router settings but cant find tennis elbow. Thomson TG782 i have.

[Morvex]

Same problem here
I opened the udp port 4321 on router and test program says it is opened
but not the game (that still says i am not reachable)
other people see me on server hosting the game but with infinite simble on ping coulumn

So i bought the game but cannot host games and play online

[Fady212]

i have the port open...sometimes the "Host" works fine and sometimes it's not reachable....

idk if the problem is in my router or something...but note that this didn't happen to me in older versions.

[Fady212]

To open the ports, where can I get the username and password? Because it's not admin... :S

mine :-

username: Admin
pass: Admin

which means with capitals.

if you know ur router name you can search for another possiblities like

user: admin
pass: (leave it blank) and others....

Cannot host game after downloading updated version.............I have been playing for years with no problem

Guest,
delete the game entry from your Firewall, so your Firewall should ask you to authorize the game again next time you access the network menu.
