ost_uid0="shout!"]before, i had aol, and the game was workin perfectly, now, i just got dsl, and i would expect for it to be faster, right? wrong...i can get into the chatrooms and stuff but i cant host AND i cant join games. I dont think im behind a router or firewall because when i had aol i could host and join games, so wat is the problem now, and how can i fix it?

p.s. i tried both the downloaded version and the non downloaded version (mirror 1)[/quote]
umm you have DSL doesn't give much info..do you mean you got an upgrade to DSL with AOL? and as for hosting/join...make sure you don't have the firewall/proxy checked in options if you don't need it(that's f you don't have a firewall) and try putting in AUTO for your ip in the game :biggrin:
