Can't host in BattleNet

[Shanghai]

I cant host on bnet. When i host no one joins. And i did open ports 6112-6119. TCP and UDP. I have an router and seems still like i cant host. Could it be the firewall in windows who do it or what can it be?

Have you followed this tutorial thoroughly?

And yes you might want to add an exception to your windows firewall and any other firewall applications you have installed.
(Make sure it's both outbound and inbound access)
Including turning off filters for virusscan applications inside your adapter settings if relevant.

If you did then it might be that your router doesn't support wc3 hosting for some specific reason.
I had this same issue when I changed my router even though I had configured everything the way it should be configured...
A solution would be: buy a router that does support it (I don't know which one ).

Are you sure that its not just noone likes you and isnt joining?

My bud tested to join and it doesent work. I did host before with same router and i have allready open ports. And now disabled firewall still not working. Could it be the virus program?

Hmm, try hosting in Garena, see if you could host a game, and people are able to join you. And btw, the right section to post this thread is in WarCraft Discussion forum.

Sometimes the internet provider doesn't allow hosting of maps, so maybe that's the issue :S

So its impossible to fix?

By some personals experiences, this can happen in some other cases, for example, i had open ports on some others comps and also the exception in firewall, but i wasn't able to host. Now, with my new pc, i tryed and it works. Note that i have still the same router.

Also, i dunno why it happened.

But maybe it was cauz' WC3 was installed on an usb key.

If you still believe it's Firewall, you may still turn it on, but have Warcraft 3 as trusted (Thick the box).

No it wasent the firewall. I dont know why this hapend. I could host before on same pc. And now i cant for some reason even if ports open. And also a friend tested to host.
He could also host before andn ow he cant. Same problem there. he also got router with open ports.

So problem must be something that wc3 changed ports or anything i dont know realy.
