Hev Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Hi, when i try to make a internet 2v2 game, the game shows the closed IP that cant be dialed from the outside. Im behind a router and have forwarded the ports, it just wont conect. Any help much appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 you have to have the person go to your external ip. Go to whatismyip.com and zend that to the person trying to play you. It works fine thru my Belkin firewall. Rune 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hev Posted July 27, 2007 Author Share Posted July 27, 2007 Ok, that didnt work, we waited two minutes and nothing happened. I think i may be setting the port forwarding wrong, i have a netgear router and its not helping me much. EDIT: I sorted out the port forwarding and now, with the external ip, we can connect HURAAH Thanks rune [ July 27, 2007, 01:02 PM: Message edited by: Hev ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
