Smackie 0 Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Alright im not sure what kinda system my friend has.. but my friend is having a problem while hosting.. while he is hosting a game in Ghost recon we can join him and play be we can't see if its online or not.. it will only show his ip how can we fix this? I been trouble shooting with him for the last week even i went into his system using crossloops (he lives in Germany and i live in USA).. I am clueless on why its not showing the server name.. Thank you Smackie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dannik 43 Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 My gut says your friend may have to forward a couple of ports, assuming he is behind a NAT/router. GR uses three ports to fully connect: 2346, 2347, 2348. Only one is used for actual gameplay, if I recall, but the other two are needed for full communication between server and client.

Smackie 0 Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 when i was using Crossloops to get in his computer i made sure he had them ports open and them are open because if he didn't we wouldn't be able to join his connnection. we even tried his other computer.. I'm kinda like a computer wiz somewhat lol I usually always figure things out if something goes wrong i fix it but this has me scratching my head.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
