cant connect

[unmerged(209)]

hi

ive read and searched this forum and others for help but i cant find anything about my problem (or maybe i suck at searching) so i decided to post here. A friend and I are trying to play a multiplayer game and I´m the host.The manual doesnt say exactly how to do.

First we both "met" at valkirynet, i cklicked on host, chose scenario and country and then he tried to join but it said "failed to find game".Then we tried as follows: I started a usual solo game, saved it, gor out, met at valkyrinet but when he tried to join once again "failed to find the game". We´re sure it´s not a firewall/router problem. We both have the same version of the game etc... as I told you we´ve read every word posted on this forum about multiplayer, we´ve thought of everything....

any ideas?

thanx

not a ports problem? you sure?

I had a player have the same problem last week. I directed him to Castellon's post-link in the FAQ above, but not sure if that's the solution.

if it's not a router/firewall problem then this is a ISP problem.

Your ISP probably give to one of you a private IP and not a public IP, meaning that you doesn't have access to all your ports basically.
