    Looks like a dlink interface. Am i right?

    Anyway you need to make shure that you route the ports in "virtual server" as well as in "applications".

    If it still doesnt work, then go to the firewall tab and allow those ports.

    As a last trick, you might want to have a look at "tools""misc" and activate the "gaming mode".


    If you have a dlink, than it should do the trick <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    'private ip', if i'm not mistaken, is supposed to be pointing at your pc, so the router can forward traffic from those ports to the ip specified. At the moment, it looks like you've got it pointing at your router, so nothings getting forwarded.

    Also make sure the windows xp firewall is off. That one got me.

    Not exactly my router, but it should be similar.

    Configure port-forwarding/virtual server to forward the port 6112.
    Set the Private IP to your network ID (type ipconfig in command console for the hosting PC to recieve LAN IP)
    If it doesn't work, try forwarding <b>both</b> TCP and UDP.
