Title: Server Connectivity Test Tool
Post by: soupcan on July 05, 2024, 11:57:01 pm

Hi all,

I created a tool that you can use to test that your GE:S (or other Source-based) game server is reachable from the internet. Great for verifying port forwarding and firewall configuration!

Try it here: https://www.geshl2.com/server-test/

It will check if the specified TCP and UDP port is reachable and display the result. It always queries the IP address of the requestor.

If you need to test from a server that doesn't have a GUI, there's also a version that only outputs plain-text responses.

Windows (PowerShell):

Code: [Select]

(iwr https://servertest.geshl2.com/api?port=27015 -UseBasicParsing).Content

Linux:

Code: [Select]

curl https://servertest.geshl2.com/api?port=27015

It will output one of:

Code: [Select]

tcpudp  # reachable
tcponly # only TCP port reachable. can't join server
udponly # only UDP port reachable. will work, but no RCON
unreachable
