Hi. I have a NETGEAR wireless router, model WGR614 v6.
I play a game called Worms Armageddon and to be able to host a game on it u need to forward ports 17010-17012. I forward the ports and everything then i go back to worms and i still cant host.
Can anyone tell me why port forwarding isnt working?
run a port scan from some site like SheildsUp to see if they think the ports are open. note that in addition to forwarding a port you often also need to seperately enabel it on the router.
