Hi when i set up online games on the internet they never show up on the internet sever list when even when i search for every single server. Please help me because i have recently started a clan and i need to get a server up to make sure that i can get people in it if they wish to trial.
if you wish to have a look at my clan web site feel free you may want to join! :) the web site is www.freewebs.com/halogiantsclan

and if you have a wireless connection there is nothing for the other computer to hook-up to so no one can come because of your wireless connection

i certainly do have a wireless connection but why does this prevent people from hooking up to my servers? I have set up online games before on games such as championship manager and people have joined them so whats going on?

i'm not sure, but if you've created your own server, you can't join it because it's yours, so why would it show up? what's the server name, i'll see if i can see it.

DS stand for dedicated server. Your wireless router has a built in firewall and is probably blocking the Halo port 2302. Look at the manual for your router and see how open up ports to play games
