Problem with hosting and disconnecting after every game

[kuba114]

Hello

Ok, I have two problems. First, whenever I finish a custom game (haven't tried pg yet) I get disconnected from BN - my connection is ok at that time and it happens everytime I end a game - 100% chance. Anyone had that problem? Anyone solved it? I've seen a thread about it on this forums but there was no solution there.

Ok, problem number two - hosting. I forwarded ports to my IP and turned off Firewall / AV. I have static IP and everything. But I still can't host. Anyone knows why? Additionally, I had no problems with hosting about 6-8 months ago - and I didn't change my router, my Internet nor any of my PC components since then (only difference is that I have now windows 7 instead of XP). Anyone have a solution for that? Maybe something changed recently on the server side that I can't host?

BTW, even though that I have my ports forwarded, when I check them on sites that show which ports u have opened I got a message that my ports are stiill closed (meaning that I haven't forwarded them? how so?).

ADDITIONAL INFO:
Router : Netgear WGR614v9
PC specs (if needed): Phenom x2 555, 4GB Ram (Kingston HyperX), Radeon 4770, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Asrock M3A770DE Mainboard, cable connection (not WLAN) with Internet.


I would appreciate any help

1. Look around and that will answer quite your question, so yes, a million times asked before.
2.1. NEVER, EVER TURN OFF ANY LOCAL FIREWALL/ANTI-VIRUS, ONLY FOR TESTING (5-10 MINUTES.)
2.2 It can be that your router/firewall had an update and removed the entries. Check them again.
2.3 Use http://canyouseeme.org/ when you're hosting a game to make sure it's seenable from the outside.

Try it from top-to-down before replying, I've read that you did test but, just do it again, starting from 2.1.

Ok, I solved the problem - though not by any of your ideas. Thanks though.

What solved my both problems was setting IP from outside DHPC range - i had range from 10.0.0.2 to 10.0.0.254 and i simply changed it to 10.0.0.99 and choose my IP as 10.0.0.100 and it worket perfectly fine.

So its a solution to all those who will have the same problem. Thanks for help and close the thread

btw - now It works on canyouseeme.org perfectly fine too

Haha, invalid internal IP address! Glad to hear it was solved.
