Re:MP Hosting with a Linksys router firewall
Hi MrSpkr
I am also using a Linksys Router (WRT54GS) and here are my entries :
On the "Applications & Gaming" tab, here is the Port Range Forward :
Application : SOW
Start : 31791 to End : 31791
Protocol : UDP
IP Address : fill in your IP address
Then click on the Enable box
I looked at the rest of my Config page, and I do not see any other entries for SOW.
In my "Windows Firewall", all I did was click on "Allow a Program through Windows Firewall"
Go to "Exceptions" tab, and if SOW doesn't show up in the program or Port list, you can click on the "Add Program" button and find the SOW exe.
I hope this is what you are looking for.
