yer didnt change


im on uswest kingcoolryan, but i have got my friend to test and he couldnt join

this might not help but the other day i had to revert to last known good configuration because of some trouble i had with my pc.. i dk if that would help

[GeorgeMots]

Did you reinstall?

[kingcoolryan]

no i havent reinstalled but would that help?

[GeorgeMots]

That will be your last choice. Try to see if you can host with garena or LC.

[kingcoolryan]

ok i still need help now when i port foward and check with a port checker it is now saying they r all closed.. i have reastarted pc and router and disabled firewall... still any sugestions also ive tryed to host with lc still didnt work

[Bushido]

try without the port checker and host a game.

[kingcoolryan]

nup no luck i have refowared the ports and everything and have run out of ideas!! :C

Are you sure the firewall is disabled? If you had to go to last known good configuration, there's a chance it rolled back your changes to the settings.

Make sure you're forwarding to the right internal IP address, and that nothing else is using it. Beyond that, I'm not sure what else to say.

[kingcoolryan]

for instance what programs might be using those ports?

[weirdone2]

All I can think of is either:
A. you put in the wrong info on your port forward.
B. something is blocking the ports like a firewall.

And from your first post I would guess it's most likely b, so if you can remember check and see if any new programs have poped up on your computer, maybe there the culprit. :O
