6969 for RF
Open port 7755... Then run your server.. That should work.

Have you tried letting down all of your firewalls? Or even running the server with your router in DMZ mode?

yes DMZ is enabled, yes i im trying to see the server from another pc, but also from the same one...since i can host with either of them. My firewall is not blocking because i allready have it OFF when i try all of this....but the thing if i can see my server from hosting with only my dsl router, then i should be ok with the firewall...and the funny thing is that DMZ being enabled should allow anything...but i guess it doesnt...

Hey M.I.G.R3S|D3Nt if you can wait. I have a word file(that i created) that will help you. I have the same router.
I should be home in about 4 hours from work to do more work.
It should work as long it's not wirelless.
From what I can tell, you might not be allowing the right computer to have the access or your internal IP address is changing everytime you reboot your PC, which mean that what you thought you had configured correctly is no longer corect because of it. Are you confused yet?
well it makes sense...because everytime i do something my ip changes lol...but anyways here is my msn bmwpower_x5@msn.com...if u want to send me some more instructions...
one more question. Rite now i have the modem...if i take all my info about ip and all...and then put the router....would it work if i would change the router ip to go towards the ip i have with the modem??..and how would i do that

In other words assign IP addresses to your computers rather then have them grab the IPs automatically..
True. That is one thing that I don't have included in the word file that I have later on when I get time. I will add that to the instructions as well.
P.S.

I emailed you the file. I hope it helps.
