Connecting problem when more than 2 ppls.

[Arx]

Connecting is fine if there are only two men in game. (me and one of my friends, no matter which, I played with each of them.)
Yesterday, I tried to make a team game with my friends. But we have trouble connecting to others.

First, we have 5 men, let's say A B C D E.
I am the host.(A)

When A B C
B with C failed.
After we check "use upnp".
Success

When A B D
B with D failed.
After we check "use upnp".
Success

When A B C D
B with C failed.
B with D failed.
C with D failed.
After we check "use upnp".
C with D failed.

When A B C E
After we check "use upnp".
A B C was fine, but E kept getting "timeout error" as soon as he get into in-game lobby.
(About the "timeout", I'm not sure what it exactly says in English version, we use other language version.)

I guess some of us uncheck the upnp may help?
And we havn't tried changing game port (6112).(Will it help?)

router, antivir, firewall?

Ahh, sorry I clicked "Report" by mistake. I thought it is reply.
They should already closed antivir, firewall.
B and C was DMZ enabled, but still can't connect to each other before "use upnp"
D can't use DMZ for some reason, and can't connect to C before/after "use upnp"
Don't know how to solve this problem, we may try "hamachi" next weekend.(It fixed connection problem in another game.)

You should debug it one step at a time.

You can't change everyone config the same way at the same time.

So fix A connection so it can connect with any game in the lobby (not with BCDE only), then B, then C,....
