IF YOU CAN'T HOST A SERVER READ THIS NOW!!!!
Posted: Sun Jan 27, 2008 10:36 amOK everyone most of you came to me saying you can't host a server in TFC! and i have got a solution!
First of all are you connected to a router?
secondly have you disabled your firewall?
--- these could be reasons why you can't host
IF YOU HAVE A ROUTER YOU MUST FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
now you need to log into your router! to do this open up INTERNET explorer and in the address bar type in 192.168.2.1 this is the normal IP address for the router then go to that link by pressing enter, if it asks you for a pass word just click enter or accept what ever if you have not already made a password, there are many different routers made by different company's so the ip maybe different to you. In the router control panel which you have just logged into you must find the firewall section and unblock the ports and what ever, also you might want to update your router by downloading the latest firmware and uploading it to the router by going to your manufacturer's website and downloading it there, i have a belkin router just let you people know.
so thats it if you have any problems just post below!
Thanks for reading this post i know some of you people can't be bothered to post and read stuff.
