[SOLVED] COH NAT Negotiation error - RESOLVED

[mrdoogso]

Hello guys,

I've been around the proverbial block a few times with this one, and have eventually come across a fix that seems to work.

For those of you still getting a horrible percentage of NAT errors in Company of Heroes while playing Online, i have come across a thread online that takes a rather simple approach to fixing the error.

if i am able to, i will supply the link to the person who was kind enough to do a screen dump of all the screens you need to open to make the small but necessary change.

Basically you are adding your own pc to the services running on your network that internet users can access.. for those that do not know their own IP address, simply run the cmd prompt from the start menu and then type IPCONFIG and hit enter to get the full network details of your machine.

Thankfully i have had no NAT errors since adding this..

I hope you guys find this just as useful !

Good luck - and see you all online !

I must be doing something wrong here as this is definitely not working.

Me and 2 friends did what was provided here. We also did the port forwarding per portforward.com.

With one friend I can play with another I get NAT connection issues both ways when I host or he hosts.

Then he and I tried logging into several other games with other people and got 7 out of 10 hits. Both of us.

If someone can help out then I would be very gratefull

!!!WARNING!!!
DISABLING FIREWALL COULD LEAVE YOU EXPOSED TO THREATS AND SHOULD NOT BE DONE UNLESS YOU FEEL LIKE IT ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE DONE. I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS.

!!!IMPORTANT!!!
Information you need before you can try this solution
1. You need to have a router.
2. You need to know what kind of router you have so you can look up your routers ip so you can connect to it.
List of routers to choose from
All Routers Brands
Router brands: Show


Example:

1. Routers name Linksys

2. ip to connect 192.168.1.1

3. username: Admin Password: Admin

4. go to security tab

5. turn off firewall

6. save


3. You need to know your routers login information. By default this is usually Username: Admin Password: Admin.

Ok, this occures when someone tries to connect to a game or has someone try to connect to their game and this error pops up, this error pops up because of the routers firewall. If you dont have a router and it happens to you it still could be because of anothers router firewall. This firewall would need to be disabled to avoid this error. To fix this you need to go into your router and go to security and disable firewall! This will leave you exposed and should be turned back on after playing your game.

Example:

1. Routers name Linksys

2. ip to connect 192.168.1.1

3. username: Admin Password: Admin

4. go to security tab

5. turn off firewall

6. save
