I resently installed norton security into my computer, and so far whenever i try to connect with halo PC or CE it says it can't connect to the gamespy master server. I took down the firewall and everything. Could someone please help me?

EDIT:I looked in the guide for Halo PC multiplayer and found nothing.

Whenever I create a server, people say they can't see it

Follow the first tip to make sure you didn't create the server in this section. If you can join games properly than that doesn't matter. Also if you are using a router or if you have a firewall setup you have to disable it for Halo by click Start, and then clicking Control Panel. Open the Security Center and than you firewall. Click the Exceptions tab, than Add Program and browse to find the Halo folder labeled: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe. Click okay twice.

I can't connect Halo over my LAN, but I know my routers working

Open your LAN settings and disable port 2302 and port 2303.


Follow the first step in the control panel and if you have the router with the firewall than disable those ports.

umm, it asks for the name to the port than the port number. Would you happen to know the name of the port?

EDIT: I just found out this has nothing to do with windows firewall and its norton thats blocking me, unfortunatly I dont have the password for it so ill just have to wait, thanks for the help though.

I also have connection problems. I just bought this game off eBay a few weeks ago, got here yesterday (Saturday), but I cannot connect to multiplayer. It gets to the connecting screen, but before I join, it says "Connection rejected: Your client is older than the server.". I dont know what the problem is, but you guys might.....


If you guys could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
:)

You need the patch, you have v1, and the server is v1.07
