Um... If you have a router, you will "not" be able to "host" games, but you should be able to join ;)

Try going

Shut off/disable your firewall, as well as any realtime antivirus scanware that you may be running. (they will just make your game laggy, and make it so you can not connect to people)

If your on a router...disable that too.

also make sure to read the entire SFO FAQ

..there is a 99% chance that it will contain the cure for what ails you.

If your on a highspeed ISP..they may have you on a router.
Try contacting your ISP and asking if they have you on a router.
If they say yes they have use routers for the clients, try requesting that they remove you from their routing system.
...or try getting a different ISP.
