If using a Port Forwarding VPN - like PureVPN - then only the GM needs it.
If using a Private Network like Hamachi or Zero Tier then everyone needs it.

Just the GM (beat to it).
well, the 5yr deal is no longer available. does it benefit anyone to refer/invite me? Or just go sign up directly?
any advice on connecting through it? Is there a guide somewhere? I just bought the purevpn and FG isn't visible through it. The GM/client connection works fine on local LAN at home. I'm trying to connect in a hotel. Here's where I've stripped down to and still no success:
Connectivity testing at hotel:
Hotel wifi: set to private
Mcafee firewall: turned off
no other security software running
purvpn port-forwarding: all ports open
netstat result: 1802 listening
canyouseeme port 1802: failed
FG running
FG test: failed

Yes, I have searched the forums extensively and not found anything addressing purevpn. I have a specific rule in mcafee even when it's on (needed to get working on home LAN). PureVPN asks me to choose what "type" of connection I'm needing: stream, internet freedom, security/privacy, file-sharing, dedicated IP. None of this is addressed in the volumes of forum posts I've been reading. Thanks in advance for any help.
tinkered with the purevpn settings and connections more and made a tiny bit of progress. Canyouseeme now shows success on port 1802 scan. But I still can't ever get the connection test in the FG launcher to resolve. It doesn't say failed anymore but it hangs on "in progress".
Many if us have had success when using the dedicated ipaddress add in at pure vpn. You may not need that anymore but it definitely works with it.

I’ll response more in full when I get to a computer.
What does this mean?
