Hi,

see topic title.
Can't play it online, it keeps stuck on connecting. When I plug in my pc directly to the modem it works instantly, so it isn't a firewall/software issue on my pc.

I forwarded these ports in my router and enabled a DMZ for my internal IP.

looks like this in the settings:

What else can I try doing?

Thanks in advance.

ps. as stated on that site it say's it needs those ports for Outbound only (no forward needed) , and only 1 port for finding games, but I can't even connect to IWnet ingame.
 
Hm I'm gonna try tomorrow, adding the ranges to the router, I tried adding 27000 27001 27002 etc, up to 27015 manually but that didn't work. (Tried TCP and UDP) those 2 screenshots are older, been playing around abit more and didn't manage to get it working.

Gotta go bed now but I'll try adding the ranges tomorrow =) Thanks!
 
Tried that yesterday (I couldn't add ranges so I had to add every port one by one).
Still didn't work, I even added the TCP and UDP from 27000 to 27050 (took quite awhile).

still couldn't connect, even tried it with DMZ on/off. static ip's nothing would work..

Now I bought a new router and it's working instantly, didn't had to setup anything(no dmz and none ports forwarded) . (my old router was a 15 euro "E-Tech" router) Now I got a Netgear :)
