Are you using your own router/firewall or are you on a public/school/work's computer?

If it's your own computer, disable the firewall temporarily to test. If it's not your computer or you're playing on someone else's network, ask the IT dept or whoever owns it to edit the port settings.

You don't need to bypass the firewall, just go into its options and allow port 20100.

What is the make and model of your modem and router?
