Help Please Can't host an Internet Game
« on: December 29, 2011, 06:02:40 PM »
I can't host an Internet Game because i haven't correctly set this up. How do i properly do this?

I can access my Router Mananger thats has all the settings but i can't Bridge Commander still reverts to Lan

My current failed Port Forwarding setup reads like this below

TCP   22101-28900   22101-28900   TCP   0

Is this how yours reads...

hopefully attached a screenshot of my setup

first of all the app name should be stbc not Bridge Commander.

also I'd take a look at this site... http://portforward.com/
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

looks like theres a space before stbc, try getting rid of that space and saving the config and let us know if that works. if not try putting the .exe suffix onto the stbc i know that can cause issues from time to time.
