It's a Belkin Wireless G Plus Router. Model #F5D7231-4

P.S. I found DMZ...

I have a belkin router. And to be honest with you, I gave up thewireless dream. I did have it to where I could join some games sometimes, mostly those hosted in North America. My model number is F5D7230-4, I think that is a little older than yours, not sure. I will be following this thread to see if Hoff can come up with something though... :p

I'm ready about to give up too. I've also tried to play Victoria and Crusader Kings on multiplayer; neither of them worked. This is definitely an issue that someone needs to address. Maybe I'll write a letter to Belkin asking them how to play multiplayer. I'll also ask them why is it so difficult in the first place. Hopefully we can fix the problem, or I'll have to buy a new router.

ok u need to enable dmz. you need the last digit of ur lan ip to put in the box. usually it will be 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.2 or whaetver, dependin on how many computers on your network.

if you go start, run, and in the box type cmd then hit enter, the command line will come up. type ipconfig and hit enter, and you should get ur lan ip

type the last digit in the private ip box, so the address is the same as wat u got in ipconfig, and hit enable. then apply changes and save it

now ur router will be completely open, you will be able to play hoi2 and a lot of other things will run better and faster too. dont let noobs tell u dmz makes ur pc more vunerable, it doesnt, no one is gonna wanna hax ur computer lol
