almighty_lord · 07-23-2008, 11:07 AM

Ok, I'm really starting to get mad because i've done everything and it still doesn't work.

I've created a Static IP address
I've forwarded the necessary ports(6112-6119)
I've Forwarded warcraft 3 and necessary ports through my firewall
I've tryed completely turning off firewall
I've changed the port(in-game)to 6112

My router is a D-Link DIR-615
I have a Dell Intel core 2Duo
with windows vista

Can someone plz help me
I'm desperate here!(plz do not tell me to go to www.portforward.com) i have searched the whole site for an answer to my problem and they don't have one..

If you can't help me plz try refering me to someone who could

Are you making these changes in a software firewall or the router config? If you have both, have you forwarded the ports in both?

Have you set the ports to use TCP and UDP, in and out?

I made the changes in the software firewall and I can't find how to allow exceptions in my routers firewall.

Ports have been forwarded in tcp and udp

I know you don't want me to send you to portforward.com, but they have an illustrated guide for setting up ports for Warcraft 3 on your DIR615 router that is very easy to follow. See here for full details.

If you've setup your firewall and router according to the instructions above, then I don't know what else to suggest. I've never played Warcraft, so I'm probably not the best person to be giving advice on this one. I know we have a few members who play, so hang on for some more replies or try the official Warcraft forums.
