    Resolved [RESOLVED] P2P question

    Hello guys I have to make a game with user connected to server, now I have the server and client side but my question is how to make my server global , so everyone who have the client to connect to my server.
    Is that possible if my pc is starting the programm and its behind Wi-fi ?

    If you are on Wifi, you are probably behind a firewall. Just put the server on the dmz, that way everybody can access it.

    There are many ways to approach this. You can port-forward and make whatever port your server uses be somewhat public or you can disable your firewall (don't do that, it's extremely bad).
    Before I can further help you however, I need to ask if your clients are connecting to the server by typing in an IP you give them, or are you trying to make the game automatically show up in a server list (like if you loaded most multiplayer games and were looking for servers)
    EDIT: My bad, didn't read resolved
