NetWork problems

[QuickSilve]

Hi ...
In firts time I speak french, so I will try to explain the best I can my problem.

Well, I have a problem with the network play of Worms 2.

When I click on a portion create, I see only the second infinitely parades. I can also create myself the bet but nobody can reach me!

So maybe I should just open the ports necessary to play online, if so, write me clearly the numbers and whether it is in TCP or UDP would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much
Answer Me Please

Merci "Thanks You"

Which ports do i forward?
Once you have read something about what a router is & how it works, all you need to do is forward the correct ports. Make sure you forward both TCP and UDP. Forward ALL of the ports below, not just some of them :)


Port 47624
range 1000-3212
port 17000 (17171 demo)
port 5431
port 53
What else do i need to do?
You also need to do what we call IP switching. Download the easy-to-use IP Switcher. Open it, run it. Go to www.whatismyip.com to find your internet IP address. Put your internet IP address into the IP switcher. Go into the room you wish to create a game in, click "set IP", THEN host your game.

But it is not clear, do I have to enter ports in TCP or UDP. And what does "range"?

...forward both TCP and UDPRange means all the ports between the two numbers. I think.

Port 47624
port 17000 (17171 demo)
port 5431
port 53

you only need these. i did do some testing on these to see if any were not needed but i forget what the results of said test were. the 'Range' is not needed to be forwarded at all and yes, forward for both UDP and TCP.
