First of all, be a little more patient. Posts are not always answered within 10 minutes. Though, if you come into the #SE4 channel on Gamesnet IRC, they can be.

Are the ports forwarded to the internal network IP of your computer? That is where they should be sent if you are behind a router. An example would be 192.168.0.1.

Thanks for answearing. And you are right i should learn to be more patient

Yes in my port routing tables, I have this ports opened to my host pc computers ip address. I do believe that is right in my setup or they would not be able to connect halfway to my host pc. Like i said i can see them connected and the game says there connected but after a minute they get a message on there end that they cannot connect to host.. but i still see them as connected on my host pc.

Easiest way to handle this would be to setup a private game on the PBW server and play from there. I, myself, have not attempted tcp/ip setup from outside my network, or I would tell you how I did it.

Thanks Gandalph....i have done that. It works good but i would rather play tcp/ip and not have to worry with the PBM service etc.

You must first have an IRC client program, you can find a good one at www.mirc.com, then you connect to gamesnet with the IRC prog, then you join channel #se4.
