Sudden Strike Forever Wireless Config

flashfreddie · 12-06-2007, 12:25 PM

Hi,

I play the above game via my old thompson adsl modem.

In 2003 I bought a new belikin access point with zoom adsl moden to have a wireless network in the house. The Network is fine all members can access the internet and play several online games COD for example.

However the above game sudden strike forever a number of ports have to be opened (and based on faq within the game can be tricky , buy certainly possible) , I would like to have two PC's from my wireless network join an online game but alas I can't even get one to work.

Should the ports be opened on the access point or adsl modem or both , and should I be do something with the dmz. I have tried several times to configure without success.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

if you were connected directly to the modem you wouldnt have a problem.the ports need to be forwarded on the router.dmz will open all ports,but only to one computer.

Thanks Pharoah for the confirmation,

So is it possible to purchase other network devices that would allow more than one PC in a home network to connect to an online game ?

Hi,

Is it possible to have a home network that would allow two or more network users to join an online game.

What hardware and network configuration would allow this, tks ?
