Hosting games on WC3

coffeeortea SG

hi, i used to be able to host games on wc3, but i forgot how to enable the settings, i remember i had to go to some internet settings, and open 2 ports, 6112 or something? one for coming in and one for going out. can anyone please help me with this? i forgot how to enable this feature. btw, im on a wireless router, and i have dmz mode enabled

open ports 6111 - 6119 if i not wrong TCP and UDP.

den if have any fire walls just off for the ports 6111 - 6119 and also for the game WC3.

oh yeah.. btw, where do i go to do those settings.. also, i understand that i have to insert my computer ip.. do i use the ip of the main comp directly connected to the internet? or do i use the ip that is given by the router to my comp.. where can i adjust these settings btw?

coffeeortea SG

stellazio SG

erm go to ur router page.. Laughing

try entering this address to ur internet explorer 192.168.1.1

it shd bring you to ur router page. if not theres a way to get in. figure it out urself.

den go to NAPT if you are on the Singnet BB ADSL router
go to Port Opening/ forwarding (cant remeber which exactly) if you are on StarHub Cable Linksys Router

Open ports 6111-6119 (someone mentioned 6112 to 6119, i open 6111 in case. Embarassed ) Both TCP and UDP i believe

if you have Norton Antivirus or any such programs u need to open the firewall, open Windows firewall also.

the ip that you need can be found @ www.showmyip.com

now i would like a Ice tea with milk please
