Ive must have gone on at least 10 different computers including ones at my school, the library, on labtops and none can allow me to host a game. I have turned off the firewall on my computer and labtop and i still cant host. Ive been on computers that dont have a firewall at all and STILL cant host. There has to be more to hosting besides firewalls and routers. I would really like to start hosting games because i have friends that want to play agaisnt me. So if any1 has info or details on how i can host, let me know plz :sleepy: *sigh*

as far as i'm aware, school networks, libraries and so on have thir own network (routers). How else could they have ALL those computers connected to the net. They're no individually connected to their very own modem. That would cost alot of money.

yea...... school internet=no host, library internet= no host, home network=possible to host, direct connection=hosting!!!!

that's what i'm trying to say. but when i explain it. People don't get it. |
FACT is many computers have firewalls without people knowing it !
WINDOWS XP for itself comes with a firewall, and when behind a router it makes the computer have 2 firewalls ! and in itself i think the computer itself has a certain configuration for it ! |

Well at least i know why i cant host in schools and libraries. As for my computer, it's not routed and has direct connection with a DSL modem. Like i said before i have turned off my windows xp firewall, my freedom firewall AND my McAfee firewall and still no luck with the hosting. Im beginning to think that it might have something to do with windows xp models because all the computers i use at schools, libraries and home are windows xp. Oh, ummm...does having a phone connected to the modem count as routed? Well anyways If any1 out there use a windows xp and can host let me know how u did it. :plain:

You can't host using DSL even if you take off the router trust me becuase I have it.

Ah man if thats's true then that sucks. Are u sure? There has to be another way.

Trust me I have DSL and there is no way you can do that but if you turn it off still nothing so I say you need to get friends from the internet and get there messenger and whenever you are online and there playing sfo than tell them to host and you will join, thats really all i can say :p |
