hi, i have this problem i can host games and play 1v1 normal (i have ports 6110-6119 open) but i cant play 2v2 or 3v3 or 4v4 i lag the game i cant even play a 3 player free for all i cant find anything about this when i search the forums.

ps: i have a speedstream 4200 router, my speed is 328 kb/s.

ps2: i used to play starcraft when the version 1.12 was the lastest and i play with a dial up modem 3v3 without lag.

You MIGHT be suffering from the dreaded double router syndrome. What modem do you have?

That's the exact same modem I use, and I get the same problem. o_o
Never found a solution, TBH.

open the ports for TCP and UDP
make sure your firewall is off or has the ports open too

Same problem, different modem: the cable modem says Webstar and Scientific Atlanta on it; not sure of the exact model number.

Haven't found a solution either, but I suspect it has to do with sending/receiving UDP packets to the same port to more than one person at a time.

Another friend of mine has the same problem with a different DSL modem. She also tried it without a router (plugging modem directly to computer), and I'm sure I've set up my router/firewalls correctly; so it must be a problem with the modems.
I BELIEVE IN CAPITAL LETTER PUNISHMENT!!!!!

Here is a link to your modem's manual and latest drivers:

It's not a router, it has some routing functions, but it's a modem. I suggest finding out how to disable all router-type functions on your modem or purchase a real router.

Agree. Nice post. Try d-link if your scared of setting up routers or an open firmware router if your not and like to p2p. I've gotten it to work with a 2wire modem/router thing before as well, but even I'm not sure what I did.
