Hello jonnyvalentine,

In order to open your ports, you need to access your routers page, what kind of router do you have?(Linksys, Belkin, Netgear, D-link?)

A great website is www.portforward.com as well, you select your router, and the game, then it gives you a step by step guide to port forward your router.
