Birth of the Federation problem

[coRtALoS]

I've been trying to get this ****ing thing to work for the last few days now with my friend.

For whatever reason, everything works when we all have a LAN party, and we're operating on 192.168.x.x IPs, however now that I'm at my apartment, I can't seem to do the same thing using each other's ISP IPs.

I'm on broadband, behind a router, however I do have DMZ enabled for my local IP. My friend uses dialup.

Both of us have tried hosting while the other joins however our hosted games never show up.

I also have been unable to locate a site that specifies what ports BotF uses, however I did temporarily open up all ports 1-65535 and got the same results.

It's a Linksys wireless router, however I am hardwired to it.

Any suggestions?

do you have windows sp2 firewall on?

No sar.

check again if all udp ports etc are opened

This is actually a major problem for this game. I tried posting the same question to this over at www.armadafleetcommand.com and apparently none of them believe in answering questions, or posting a sticky telling people not to ask how to fix it. :-/
