So my friend has tried to make a dedi and everytime i go to join his game, it just retrys the server 4 times and then says unable to join. And theres no ping on the side before i try and join the server. He uses a wireless router connected to T1. Anybody want to help me out.

Is the server listed in the Gamespy lobby? Are you trying to connect thru the Internet or thru the local LAN? What is the servers IP address and can you ping it?

Did he open ports 2302 & 2303 or his router/firewall? Has anyone else been able to join the server?

even a t1 connection will lag when connected to a wireless network. Wireless isnt bad when your playing in a server, but if your hosting, then it tends to lag.
