Cannot join online games
 

i finally (after about 15 attepmts) got all 3 patches to install but now i cant join any online games. when ever i try to join one it just says couldnt connect becuase host cannot be found.... but i tunred off my firewall and im connected to the internet. anyone have any ideas?

there'sa port checker on the relicnews forums.
Look for it a bit and might help you

where abouts on there

yer i found it i read everything but some of it i didnt understand and that website that gives you a static ip adress didnt work becuase i couldnt connect to the internet after i changed it... Ohhh well i guesss im just not meant to play online

and can you host normallly?

And what firewall are you using.

It's settings tend to actualyl often bugger even when turned off

Can you put the port checker link up please? I get the same problem

just go to the relic forums search and ports or port checker

I'd do it myself
but my internet is protesting right now

EDIT

Managed to force my internet into finally listening to me

and here it is

Relic Forums - DoW multiplayer network tester (BACK UP AND RUNNING)

I've used the port checker, everything's fine according to that, and I still get the same message. :P

what's your precise problem?
It may be that other's don't have it and thus you can't join untill you randomly make a game.
