T_O_A_D Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 First you will need to know your Machines Internal IP This works for Win 2000/XP I'm not sure just yet on Vista or Win7 on this internal ip stuff. So if you know, please post, and I'll edit this thread. You can use the "run" cmd as follows Go to Start -> Run and type in cmd. CMD This will open a DOS window. Type the command ipconfig and look for your internal ip of your machine. If you want all the info, about your machines network numbers you can type ipconfig /all. you'll see something in the order of. 192.168.1.100 More on that here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipconfig The ip address is the internal ip assigned by the router for that pc the other pc's will have a different ip ending where xxx=102 on pc 1 then xxx=103 on pc 2 Make sure the port 21000 udp is assigned to the correct ip address. Your external ip can be found by typing into your web browser. http://www.whatismyip.com/ For router info look at this thread. http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/49310655/m/314103891?r=863109982#863109982 How to set up your router. Screen examples. Here are the only things you need M8! Just go to this link Lynksys admin Your stock pasword will be "admin" Then find these two pages and make them match mine and you will be set. I haven't updated my drivers for the router in about six months so if you have your recently it may vary in looks just a tad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfesser Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 In Win 7 it appears to be in the control panel. I have a D-Link router and seem to have the correct ports forwarded but still no luck ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfesser Posted January 9, 2010 Report Share Posted January 9, 2010 In the seond pic Virtual Servers Settings section does anyone know what the stuff in the red circle means or what it should be set to? I can't remember why I did that but it wasn't pulled out of a hat or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
