Friend can't join Minecraft server(please read before posting)
5 replies, posted
My friend cannot join my Minecraft server, Garry's Mod server, or TF2 server. All server's [B]are port forwarded correctly[/B] and my [B]other friends can join just fine outside of my network.[/B]
Told him to do some things like turn off his firewall but it still won't work. It really doesn't make all that much sense, since my other friends can join them just fine. He's using the correct IP and everything.
Does anyone have any idea what's wrong here?
Update java for the minecraft part. For the rest (i doubt it will work but worth a go) verify the integrity of the game files.

We already did that, but it didn't work. He can't connect to my other friend's server, either.
What does the game say when he tries to join? Client error / Console error?

In Garry's Mod it says: Server not responding/Server failed after 4 retries
In Minecraft it says: Can't reach server(and when connecting anyway just sits there at connecting to server)
It's genuinely acting like the port forward isn't correct, and that the server doesn't exist. But it is. It doesn't make sense.
Can he connect to any other servers?
