Hosting server

[Bumpy]

Hi all,

I run the Dutch competition of Formula One Stockcar Racing

 

Since I use the Thomson Speedtouch 780 WL I can't host the game.

I have to open ports.

 

The question is: how to open ports, what portnumbers I have to open and most important how to configure.

 

Can anyone help me?

look here

http://portforward.com/english/routers/por...routerindex.htm

 

you'll find thompson acatel = speedtouch

 

these arent exactly right models but the interface should be similar

 

SpeedTouch716WL

Speedtouch780v6

 

pick 1 of the routers from list and on next page should a list of games come up,

 

pic nascar from list and you'll be shown a walk through,

 

 

this walktrough isn't exactly for nascar heat so may need to adjust slightly to suit,

and i think standard port number for - HEAT - is 2001,

 

if you can's get it sorted ring your isp's technical support and they will help you,

Thanks Demonstone,

I've tried this before but it won't work.

 

Did several options but nothing worked.

Problems sorted

 

Had to open port 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005

 

First I opened just port 2001, so that was the problem

what program or how did u open ur ports

[Bumpy]

I wrote my standardgateway number in the browser so I logged online in in my modem setups.

 

Then I went to the toolbox and wnet to Game & Application Sharing.

 

I had to add a game (give it a name) and open the ports.

 

Then setup the game that it belongs to your computer.
