Multiplayer Connectivity..

Please download, read and follow all my instructions in the following guide. Then, assuming you're not at a university campus (or anywhere else where you can't control your network settings) you/your friend won't have anymore hosting issues.

Why you didn't check the "stickies" for help regarding this is beyond me.....?

Oh, and there is a substantial difference between simply "opening" ports for inbound traffic and actually "forwarding" all inbound traffic on that port, to a specific IP (which is what SINS requires).

thanks,

actually i read all your guide, still no help to it

Then you're missing something. My guide is meant to be followed step-by-step. Many people who at first told me they had read my guide and it wasn't any help found out that by skipping a page or two they had sunk their own boat!

In fact, just last night one fellow told me that "...nowhere in your guide does it mention port-forwarding..."

When I pointed out that on page four the words "port-forwarding" are bolded and underlined...... well you get the idea!

If you post back with your network map and more information I can help by pointing you in the right direction.
