Wurm Unlimited Server Ports and Browser Visibility
Wurm can start successfully while remaining visible only on the LAN tab. That almost always means the Internet-facing client or Steam query path is not reachable.
Documented port roles
| Port or range | Protocol | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
3724 | TCP | Client connection by default. |
8766 | TCP/UDP | General Steam communication. |
27016-27030 | UDP | Steam query and browser visibility. |
| RMI/internal ports | TCP | Local or cluster administration; do not expose publicly. |
Diagnosis
- Confirm the server’s actual
externalportandqueryport. - Allow the client and Steam paths through the host firewall.
- Forward the same ports to the correct machine if self-hosting.
- Refresh the Internet tab and test direct connection.
RMI is not a player connection port. Opening it to the public Internet turns a visibility problem into an administration exposure.
