I think you will get better help if you ask your question in the multiplayer forum.
 
Yup. Typical multi player question, so I'll move you to the experts.

I think Gunny is with Optus and he also uses Cable which i think would mean he may use a DLink Router as well. Ill find out which he uses.
 
just make sure it has dmz option. then u can enable it, and you will be fine for playing any game. or if ur a pussy and dont like opening all ur ports, make sure it has port forwarding (a range of ports, not just being able to open a single port)
 
My router only allows opening of 20 ports which is barely enough. So when looking for a new router you might want to find one with a much larger range.

i have opened DMZ...its the only way i can join a game atm......and have set ports for this game specifically.....with no luck....i think i just need a specific way to do my particular router
