Default How to Host PC Games Using DSL Modem only, screenies included - 07-11-2007, 08:46 PM

NOTE- Some computers may be different with they way that they are setup, but I will do my best to help you. I am using Bellsouth Fastaccess DSL, so mine may be different, but DSL is pretty much the same-NOTE

Other side note- I have blocked my name and ip numbers from pictures for my security



Step 1. Click Start, then click on Run
Step 2. Type in Command in the run box
Step 3. Type in Ipconfig and hit enter
Step 4. Look For Your Default GateWay
Step 5. Type that Default Gateway number into a web browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape etc
Step 6. Now we are in your modem, there should be a selection on that page that says something similar to home network, NAT/Gaming.. Were looking for NAT/GAMING
Step 7. Once You have found the NAT/GAMING there should be a drop bar that says something like Predefined Service. Select Blizzard Battle.net from the list and click enable
Step 8. Tada, now turn off all firewalls from virus programs like macafee and norton and etc. now go and host a game on Warcraft 3 and have fun

Steps 6 and 7 both have 2 pictures, so follow them in order
