Are there any settings in your router to enable gaming mode or QOS? If so, try enabling them.

Well i checked my router and could not find anny thing of the sort.
But i did learn something to day, I made my server public with Hamachi(dont wanna use it for long) and a player conected. So this means 2 things.
A: The ports will open for Hamachi for server to work
B: Some thing has to be blocking the ports (that or either i didnt forward them corecty)
I have reviewed how to portforward at portforward .com and i did that all right......
Im realy confused ........

So if you're on DSL the line comes in, runs to the 2Wire, and then you are directly connected to it?

If the physical distance is not a problem, try a direct connection to the router. Since your PC may get assigned a different IP address, you will need to change the the IP addresses for the entry in the router.

Try putting the computer in the DMZ of the router. If that doesn't work, then I recommend disabling it, as it can become a large security risk.

Try contacting your ISP to see if they can the incoming port 80. If they open it and you still can't get the ports to be open, I would say there's a faulty problem with your router.
