[Celaquil]

If this is the wrong place please any mod move it to its rightfull place:

I wanna question, how do i make it possible for me to host on battlenet on a Vista? I know thats it has something to do with opening ports and so on, but I dont know how. Please, if anyone know, then tell me.

1) Go to http://192.168.1.254/
2) Click "Home Network" at the top.
3) Click "Edit firewall settings" for your computer.
4) Click "Add a new user-defined application."
5) Type "Warcraft III" for the Application Name.
6) Enter "6112" in the "Port (or Range) From" field, and click "Add Definition."
7) Click the radio button for "UDP"
8) Repeat step 6.
9) Click Back.
10) Select "Warcraft III" from the list (should be at the top), and click "Add"
11) Click "Done."

This worked for me.
I have XP, but my friend who has Vista did the same thing and it worked for him.

the "link" you postet is the router ip, which is different for everyone, so find out whats your router ip, the rest should be like CMarket said

How do I find out my router IP?

 

[CMarket]

Ok, here is how you do it: Start > Run, type in command, click enter and in the command prompt type in ipconfig, you should get an IP that goes something like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1.
