Router - ports
Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2008 6:56 am
All Air Attack network traffic is initiated from the client computer (your computer) and should not need extra configuration. Most routers will remember traffic IP and port pairing and will work out of the box. In the advent where things are NOT working please let firewalls, home router filters and proxies enable traffic TO (Server computers, Our server complex) AND FROM (Client computer, Your computer) these IPs and ports (inclusive)
Web Service and Authentication:
IP : 204.15.37.98
TO Port : 443
FROM Port : Unspecified
Protocol : TCP
Air Attack Update:
IP : 66.135.38.41, 72.51.34.71, 64.34.170.168
TO Port : 873
FROM Port : Unspecified
Protocol : TCP/UDP
Air Attack Game Traffic:
IPs : 66.135.38.41
TO Ports : 1024 - 65535
FROM Ports : 50000 - 51024
Protocol : UDP
You should configure your firewall to allow Aira.exe, AAStart.exe, wget.exe, and rsync.exe full access to the internet. In addition to these, all users using Fighter Ace ? Friends will need to let java.exe and FAF.exe full access to the internet as well (make sure the one in the install directory of FAF is used.) If you still have connection problems after this then try switching off the firewall, router filter or proxy. Remember that the service needs to be completely disabled if running on the Game computer with Win2K or above. Don't forget to enable the firewall after you've played Air Attack after such a session!!! We encourage people to use one firewall, more than one is generally not protecting things better but adds to game traffic latency. Users with Vista should read Fighter Ace & Windows Vista instructions.
