Does anybody have a clue if the following problem relates to the ISP blocking ports, the router or something I haven't done? ;D I have recently changed ISP to O2 and now have their b*stardised version of the Thomson ST780WL. Setting up port forwarding is straight forward enough but does not appear work. My erstwhile opponent cannot see the game or "ping" my router's IP address. The router appears strangled by the O2 firmware with few available options like NAT. After trying every combination of firewalls off, resetting router, recreating port forwarding rules etc. I opted to call O2. 35 minutes of similar switching, resetting and skullduggery with the O2 person deduced nothing and he blamed it on the game, this was despite poking around externally and being able to prove the desired 34397 and 34447 were not open so now I'm stuffed as he wouldn't provide anymore help.
With my previous ISP and a ZYXEL P660HW T1 there were no problems so I b*ggered about and got it working on O2, briefly [about a minute], my friend could "ping" the new alloted IP address and see a game and then it vanished from sight and back to square one with the O2 router attached.

I have no idea. You can try loging into your modem and opening all your ports.
Least the ones you want to open.

Thanks.
The box is so locked down by the firmware if you do that it refuses to connect.
I've even tried accessing via telnet and modding using the CLI to change a port into a DMZ and it will not play ball.
I've decided to get another router and invoice my ISP!

After much badgering, complaining and a long-winded letter, O2 sent a new router [Thomson TG585 V7] and this works fine.
