I just recently added another computer to my cable through a linksys router(4port) and been able to forward ports for most games but cannot get Rogue Spear to allow me to HOST a game. Playing is fine, works great but when I go to host my local IP pops in as default and is not seen. I only have DEFAULT as network address and does not show anything else. I have the ports forwarding and even tried DMZ with no luck. Anyone figure this out yet? Thanks for any help

Just have one guy hit the host button on the multi thingy. Then the other playerers should see that game in one of the boxes on the multiplayer menu. I think thats how it goes. ------------------

It isn't 2346? I haven't tried hosting because @Home sucks for hosting RS where I am. Do you have a static or dynamic IP? ------------------

The router you have is the exact same one that I have. I recently had this discussion with a few others and I agree,DMZ should not be an option, although another user uses it as a DMZ and says he has no problems "hiding" his ip addresses. The ports you need to open are as follows: Select BOTH as the protocol for all of them. PORT RANGE 6667 - 6667 28800 - 29000 47624 - 47624 2300 - 2400 Here is another forum discussion on it. ------------------

DMZ is a setting in ur router that will let u take a computer (ip) hinden behind your router and expose it to the net. Completely bypassing ur router. Witch is 1 way of hosting games. But u should be able to set up the router so it expose certain ports to certain machine and still do its job. DMZ is not the safest way to go. It will completely expose the ip configured to it, to the net. I know nothing about the Linksys router but i would think DMZ is a stander thing.

It is kind of strange that you don't know how to change your settings. Anyway, you need to go to the ip address 192.168.1.1, that is your Router Ip address. Click on the advanced tab, click on the Forwarding tab, and insert the ports I named above in there. Click on the DMZ Host tab and make sure 0 is in the box. It should work, if you have any problems, email me. ------------------
