I can only play with 1 other person, if theres any more ppl they all show up with 2 green bars and it lags horribly bad once the game starts. There is nothing wrong with my comp, it works perfectly well when i play WoW. I formated my hardisk earlier this week. I was so looking forward to play 3v3 again after a long time. This is after i got a new connection, witch is really good. I really dont know what to do. | ||

 If nothing works, try the DMZ function (if your router supports it). | ||

Maybe other people have had better luck than me, however, with my experience with netgear routers (and i mean strictly their routers, the switches are sexbombs), is that no matter how hard you try to port forward (and i'm a software developer, this stuff is engrained in my head so i'm not overlooking anything, trust me), StarCraft just doesn't fucking work. It's almost as if the router is opening the port but still doing something to stop it from completely working. Not only that, but the firmware is RIDDLED with spelling mistakes. Quality for the win? I just hate netgear, it can suck my balls and suck them again and more. | ||

If you have a dd-wrt based router you can get instructions here http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=54793 so i tried everything like that. Resetting router, trying again etc, not working still. Getting "Waiting for response from battle.net". Even WoW lags now. Put everything back now, works as before, execpt msn wont start for some wierd reason. | ||

Just be sure that you have tried it with the correct port forward configuration or with your computer in DMZ first or if your have a separate modem and router that you just plug your computer into the modem. Right now I use VPN through my university to get around the problem. | ||

Most router have a nat loopback functionality that you can use through telnet. Something like you run "cmd" then telnet ipaddressofrouter You'll be ask for ID / pass then for mine it's something like: :ip config natloopback=enabled Seems like the speedtouch are really crap at that kind of things. Hope that'll help | ||

if you have a netgear router like i do you will experience disconnects whenever your router randomly decides to stop accepting incoming packets from one source (opposing player). | ||

I'm not a router guru I just know enough to make mine work  but still, trying to help:-what's your router? (brand, model) -are you sure you're routeur ip is 192.168.1.1 ? On my router (a speedtouch 780 boxed by some ISP) I can: - Start button then "run..." in windows - Type in "cmd" and execute, a black window should open - There you type "telnet ipaddress of router" (for me: telnet 192.168.1.254) - It asks for id / pass (if you havent touch anything that should be administrator/administrator) - Then ":ipconfig natloopback=enabled" (you can try out the help functions to find the nat one... depend of the brand / model) - Then you save ":saveall" and "exit" - Reboot router and you're ready to go (you still need forward rules btw) There are a few other commands that can help if this is not enough. Some router don't accept telnet unfortunately (some DLink....), i'm afraid there's not much you can do about it (the only last chance solutions are trying to use fix IP and if your router has starcraft preset rules not using them but creating a new rule manually OR using DMZ i.e. you've got you're real IP address directly (but you can't have more than one comp on the internet at a time...)) | ||

So I opened up the command window, typed in "telnet 192.168.1.1" but it doesn't ask me for a id/password. If I put in a colon, it just moves to the next line. I'm 99% sure that 192.168.1.1 is my router IP. I use that to configure my portforward settings. | ||

I uploaded mine from Windows: Telnet (click) Hope it will work under Vista. You can also google "telnet" to find other free clients (but possibly a little bit more complicated to use) | ||

only for sympatico users using vista. there is another way for xp, which is going into the modem picture and adding UDP and TCP ports 6112. ive never had to edit my firewall. adding ports to it did nothing. Best advice get rogers internet they are good for starcraft. | ||

So I looked at the telenet thingy and the problem i run into is doesn't recognize "telenet 192.168.1.1" as a valid command. When i type in "o 6112" it replies with a "Could not open connection to host, on port 23: Connect failed". On my Netgear WPM824v2 router, I've enabled my IP as a DMZ server, Disabled the SPI firewall, and Respond to to ping on port and all of them have failed. I'm still trying to use google to find a cohesive guide on how to enable NAT functionality. I'll post screenies if anyone wants this. Btw, thanks for everyone for putting up with the common lag problem banter. It's the highest level (from a techinical standpoint) thread on opening ports I've seen, and I'd hate to cause Jellycat (great shirt btw) a trouble that amounts to nothing. | ||

here By default, Vista doesn't install the Telnet client. The client is for text-based communication with remote systems. You can install it by following these steps: 1. Click Start then select Control Panel. 2. Select Programs and Features. 3. Select Turn Windows features on or off. 4. Select the Telnet Client option. 5. Click OK. 6. A dialog box will appear to confirm installation. The telnet command should now be available. | ||
