Title: [done]Question - how to identify war2 port?
Post by: foonat on June 29, 2016, 10:24:54 AM: Hi, I've forwarded my ports and am still unable to host. I'm thinking that, as some others have reported, my war2 port might not be the standard 6112-6119 range. How can I find out what port my war2 is using so I can forward that one? Thanks!

sweet, didn't know that information was up there. I made the port 6112 so I'll see if it works now

Make sure you used the correct ip for your device and reserve it so it don't change if that didn't work. Then I expect you don't have a real ip from your isp.

Also shutdown pc, restart router, etc
