Call of Duty 5: Beta Server Config

By Bullet-Worm and Zeroy

Port Forwarding

In order to run your own server and open it up to the World you need to do some port forwarding in your Router. The ports to forwards are as follow:

UDP 20800
UDP 20810
UDP 28960-28970

For a detailed How-to setup port forwarding on your router, see Portforward.com

Make sure your Windows Firewall has either added rules for those ports or/and CoDWaWbeta.exe is unblocked from it!
