External Setup Steps 101

[Heather Lazaris]

I had some trouble figuring out how to connect externally at first,
and had to review the directions a few times to catch the details that
I missed the first time. I figured since I made this mistake, someone
else might as well, so I've decided to post this condensed version of
the directions for others to read through and use as a checklist.

Make sure to add CRD.exe to the Windows allowed firewall list. It
should come up listed as "Hypercane Studios" once added to the allow
list. Make sure it's checked.

My CRD steps (Router):
1) Port Forward: Internal IP --> TCP --> 8081

My CRD steps (PC):
2) Port: 8081
3) <password>
4) Window Title (confirmed with AutoIT): Star Wars™: The Old
Republic™
5) Window Class (confirmed with AutoIT): PlayerClient
6) Start Server

My CRD steps (Phone):

1) Public IP
2) Port: 8081
3) <password>

Follow these easy steps and you should find yourself able to connect
successfully. I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Thanks for sharing!

Just a note that window title and class will default to the values you specified if left blank, but there's no harm in hard coding them.
