Why Can't My Friend Join My Valheim Server?
I had the same problem! Make sure your server's port forwarding is set up correctly. Valheim uses port 2456 by default, so check your router settings.

Double-check that the server password is correct, and make sure both of you have compatible game versions. Sometimes simple stuff like a typo or an outdated game can cause all sorts of headaches!
Not gonna lie, sometimes it's just the game's janky multiplayer. Restart everything: the game, the server, and your router. Works 90% of the time for me!
Firewall or antivirus software might be blocking the connection. Try disabling them temporarily to see if that helps.
