ive never really noticed but what importance has the port number got to do with gameplay or anyting else.everyone normaly on 1626 or something but then i see certain individuals who are on port 80 and 31021? plz some explain.

luigibyluigi 10-02-2004 10:58 AM

the port number is because some people have to use a certion port to get passed certion things

DA_VIPA 10-02-2004 11:15 AM

that makes no sense..

Iplay2win 10-02-2004 02:38 PM

people change ports so that their router will work and they can host(although the router host thing is like 20% success rate)

{Predator} 10-02-2004 03:11 PM

there a port that u can host when u have a router? if so tell me

Iplay2win 10-05-2004 01:43 PM

usually port 80 works...but like I said 20% success rate

Wave Master 10-06-2004 08:11 PM

you can try but you'll probably fail so don't try it now I was wondering if its possible to port forwarding

Iplay2win 10-06-2004 08:46 PM

you can foward ports but from what i heard from previous attempts done by other sfo players it doesnt work

more like 0%...trust me i testes on about 20+ routers? :biggrin: the router seems to never pickup on the game when it trys to access the 1626 or any port you set it to on the game for the router to listen to.

not with a hardware firewall (router) but with a softeware firewall like norton and stuff you can host. :biggrin:

capcomman12213 10-07-2004 10:23 AM

sure..it does...i have all norton 2k5 products and non of them "suck" :biggrin:

blanka09 10-07-2004 01:41 PM

I concure though.. Norton isn't half bad..I got this abusive worm on my old comp that always closes the key and system directory everytime i open it up... and McAfee did noffin.. but Norton takes care of p2p wombats pretty well :biggrin:

Nferno666 10-07-2004 02:20 PM

[quote:post_uid0="American_Badass"]So howbout if i just delete norton? would it work then?[/quote]
umm no...norton personal firewall or norton Internet secuirty both let you host in SFO...the only type of firewall that doesn't is a hardware type firewall which is a "router"

avilancer 10-07-2004 02:27 PM

umm nosoul i got port 80 to work just takes a while :D

DarkKen 10-07-2004 10:51 PM

yea exacly man, i got a router. i got norton.
now i know norton doesn't protect you from everything, so i have backups too.
...
THE POINT IS. that i can host cuz norton lets me punch in ports that i want to open.
Wahahaha
.. hey.. how come i don't see that blue smily you guys are using... :huh: :huh:

edit:: oh I see... :biggrin: :biggrin:

routers ruin everything :biggrin:

but without them internet would be expensive b/c each com. would have a separte connection

a port is a place on a circuit that is the point of interface. Its how information is passed from one circuit to another.

You can think of them as tiny switches. If port 80 is closed or being used by something else information can't go into that circuit via that route. So another route is needed

Iplay2win 10-22-2004 05:26 AM

if all you have is the windows xp built in firewall then you should be able to disarm it then you can host
