I swear I thought I would be the last person in the Maw to post this thread, but I can't.

When I host a game, nobody can join. I forwarded my port, put down my fire wall, tried different combinations of ports, but nobody could join my server.

The funny thing is that everything was working fine a week ago. People joined my game in minutes and they never lost the connection or anything. When it was working, my server port was forwarded to 9077 and my client port was kept 2303.

Could anybody possibly help me with this?

What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

I have the exact same problem. I think it lies with the your ISP, or somthing with the router or modem that is causing it. I don't know much about screwing around with the ports, and I don't want to mess up anything, so I just don't bother.
Call your ISP, and see if they can help. What do you have Kim?

Why did you change your server port? Leave it at 2302 forward that port to the server. Also did your servers IP address change? If you set the router to forward port 2302 to 192.168.0.1 and your server IP has changed to 192.168.0.2 that will cause a problem.
