Title: Cable Problems
Post by: Flanx on October 31, 2004, 08:21:21 AM: OK Well I've got the router DMZ set, I've set the port thing, and I've got the router host patch but I still can't host a game. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

Did you apply your static (external IP) in the Nat Fix (without using auto-detect)?

Though, if it does, it would mean you entered the IP incorrectly...
