Hey guys,
I have tried playing Warcraft 3, TFT, and well, whenever I try to create a game, no one can supposidly enter my games. My friend feels that this could be due to the wireless router connection. Is there anyway to take down the firewall, or does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Thanks

Create a Virtual Server in your router on the port used by warcraft and other games you wish to use.

Yeah,
He's right. Whatever port that wc3 is using is probably a high port. The router by default most likely has it closed. Check online to find the port number. Then adjust the port forwarding on your router to pass the port onto you.

Yeah guys, we figured it out. He came over and we realised that we needed to open port 6112! yay!
