Can't host on bnet (I know what you're thinking)

[LazyCoder]

Yes it's another one of these threads, but I could swear I've done everything right.

I can't host on B.net. I have a static IP address. I have ports 6112-6119 forwarded. I have exceptions to McAfee (and even to Windows Firewall which I never use, just to be on the safe side).

I've been able to host before, albeit a long time ago. I'm on a wireless network (and I don't have much choice regarding that, I know it's slow), but I was hosting on the wireless a long time ago.

Does anybody have any ideas as to why this isn't working? I'm all out.

Add it to where? I have the TCP and UDP ports (6112-6119) added to McAfee, Windows Firewall, and my router's port forwarding.

Meeh, you must have overseen something. It can't be Wc3's fault

Did you check your wc3 network settings?

If you go into bnet with port e.g. 7100 it won't work :/

Its settings -> dunno what ;D just search

 

[LazyCoder]

It's set to 6112.

I heard that Time Warner does something screwy... anyone else heard that?

It may be your firewall.

Wow, isn't that tutorial 100% the same as what the OP did?

Can you not be so insightful?

I have the same problem too. I never got it fixed, the only way I could host was using LAN games like Garena.

And having 5 years trying to host, yeah, I've done a lot of shit already.

I was pointing out the fact that Ralle never could get it to work with McAfee so it may be that which is still blocking it. There is no reason for sarcasm.

I host with Mcafee (on 3 different PC's). Did you create a service to open the ports AND remove port logging?

What do you mean remove port logging? Add them to the excluded list?

Check your provider incase you have any peer to peer restrictions.

I met someone today in the UK who can host during the night (where restrictions are dropped) but during the day can not. ISPs are being really irritating by doing this, so you may quite well end up being unable to host during the day.
