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.
