Subject: I need a halo 1 tech problem fixed

when i try to join a halo 1 multiplayer game, it tries to connect to the server, then retries four times until it displays "can't join game." I'm connected to game spy, and I have a fast and working broadband connection. My halo game is fully updated and so is my gamespy.

Can somebody help me, when I used search-bar, nothing showed up.

(BTW I posted this in the Halo: CE forum, but I realized my mistake and put the thread here)

Check the ping of the game. If there is no ping listed, don't join it, it won't let you. Also make sure ping is 200 or less for the best experience.

Something smells fishy...

You should make sure that Halo 1 PC is allowed through your windows firewall.

You might also need to forward ports for the game. Go to portforward.com for tutorials on how to forward the necessary ports for Halo.

You can turn off your modem's firewall too. Doing so might help.
