Hello, I require some help.
I used to be able to host/join games, but my parents bought a router. I need to forward some ports, but I wouldn't know how.
My Jazz Version: 1.23
Operating System: Windows 98 SE
Internet Connection: Cable modem
Router: Planet
Please help?
(PS: I tried using a program called Port Magic for forwarding, but it couldn't reciognise the router.)

CrimiClown, you have to enter your router's configuration page and forward ports to the correct address. There are plenty of resources here explaining how to do this. Try this (http://www.jazz2online.com/J2Ov2/node.php?title=proxyServersHelpGuide) article, or the many threads in this forum on this subject.
Anakin: If you do not have a router, and you are certain that any software firewalls are disabled, you will need to contact your ISP for help. Other people have also had problems playing JJ2 online with ADSL.

i seem to do have a router, i tried setting up a static ip trough www.forwarding.com, but it didnt help, i tried setting up ports trough my default gateway, but it didnt help
I have windows firewall off, with it on nothing works even if i open the ports and permit everything
I have norton firewall on, wit hit off nothing works, i have permit all on jj2
edit : i have followed some guides from the net, i am now atleast able to host games again...
