I am new to this group, so apologise if this is a common problem, but my internet searching has come up with so much confusing information, I though I would just ask real people!...
We are trying to setup a game to work over the internet in multiplayer mode.
2 of us each have routers (Netgear) and the game Entente (exe is antanta.exe). We use the free ZoneAlarm home version and want to play the game over the internet. We have both been into ZoneAlarm and granted the exe 'Access' and 'Server', but I think we probably need to do something with port numbers in our router and perhaps in ZoneAlarm.The game suggests using port 20005, so as my PC will be the server, I have been into the router setup and added a service for Antana.exe using type TCP and port number 20005. I have also added this as a Firewall Rule with 'always allow' and put my 192.168.0.10 number in the 'Lan Server IP Address' box.
Problem is that when we run up the game, I start a multiplayer game and my friend at the other end cannot see anything in his list.
What do we need to do?
Thanks.
