Hosting Help.

How do I host? Many people say to turn off firewall, tried and that won't work. I'm sick of waiting 3 hours for someone to host an ult foots. Can you please tell me how get people to be able to come to my games I host?

Re: HOST'S!! ATTENTION.......

I see the link doesn't work anymore.

The many people who turn off their firewall will get a virus sooner or later. Because they knew nothing of ports. Which is the main problem of why most people can't host. And you only need to turn off the firewall to ports 6112-6119 only.

Go to here

Find your router. And find out what model it is. If you don't know what it is then look it up. Google is your best friend.

Then find it on the list on the link I gave above.

Find Warcraft III

Follow the directions.

I don't have time to go into details so post if you find any problems.

Re: Hosting Help.

Finally a fix for this: when you get so angry that you can't host - get dial-up. Sadly people with dial-up can actually host a game (but not really for very long ) because they don't have a modem or router, so their is nothing to forward and the firewall usually configures everything.
