yeah, not all settings are in webinterface, i also used telnet to opening different settings as: ip nat loopback on and other, but mostly i think that nat is bugged, and no newer firmware. But this configuration works better than i thought.

Code:: Express Version 3.0-polar-i386 CPU Vendor: AuthenticAMD CPU Model : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2700+ CPU Speed : 2167 Mhz Memory: 1012 Mb Network Config GREEN + RED

maybe overkill, but more power to router/firewall/dhcp than my modem

Yeah I was troubleshooting Peggasus' connection recently, it was the same router. It does have an advanced NAT feature though. I think the SUA nat feature is bugged with regards to UDP traffic.

You can ask Peggasus or better endreno (or what's his name?) what they did, it was a router side setting that I didn't find in almost an hour of searching, but they took over where I left and then figured it out.

Still seems like you had the firewall on your router on, which is NOT NECESSARY unless you are afraid of an internal attacker sending data out of your network (who could just send stolen data all out via HTTP on port 80 anyway...)

But good that it works for you now. Pretty overkill, if you ask me, but I've seen stranger things.

first, dmz was not possible with zyxel 660hw-d1 modem, so i needed to do more dramatic solution that allows udp packets out, that was problem, everything comed right in, but not out.

Solution:

Turn one computer to router, dhcp server. <- smoothwall 3.0.
After many hours configurating and reinstalling it, finaly, it worked. First i wasn't able to join games, but i was able to host a game with other players, after more configurating finaly i was able to join!!!
now my wondersystem is like this:

You defnitely have NAT, but what you need is Port Forwarding (sometimes called "Virtual Server")

I'll look into UPnP but I don't think I can support that any time soon.

that would be a problem, there's nothing anymore that i can do, router without NAT doesn't connect to lobby, without nat upnp should work, but does lobby use that? i do not want to make router work as bridge mode, 'cause i have 7 pc:s in same intranet, and that would require one machine to work as router. mayby i look in to that to see is that only router problem or my pc.

Ok, no more messages that shouldn't be there, so now I can say that it's really a router problem.

Hmmm.. Quick look at the code, it won't be easy if it's really the issue here...

The "accepting" and "sending" commands are the same. I can't know the ping between two clients...

And of course, FA doesn't send a info to the server when a player is finally connected... grrrr...

Ok, maybe he has a better routing to the server. No matter what it can happen rather often, I have to fix it.
