I am having problems setting up a multiplayer game.
I can set it up fine for my LAN at home, but the trouble is when setting it
up over the internet.
I have a router (ADSL) which uses NAT and I can set up port forwarding.  I
tried to forward ports 26000 on TCP and UDP and then setup a game, but
nobody can connect to me, can anyone help? Do I need to add more ports for
forwarding?
Or is it not possible?
Thanks
Allan
