can't join games

Post by adrenaline »

Don't know when this became an issue, as I don't play much these days... but last time (couple weeks ago) I was able to join others' games. Now I cannot. People can join my host but I can't join theirs. Any suggestions??

I personally have never heard of that issue, is the internet running fine for the rest of your computer/devices?

Also, what operating system, specs, that can help too.

ya no other problems. i was able to join games a couple weeks ago. the only thing i've changed is restarting my router once, and doing a thorough system clean with CCleaner... windows fw is off, AV is off, port is forwarded both ways (again, can host). just updated windows. no idea what the issue is.

Can you see if joining a TCP/IP game works for you?

I actually just fixed it... had some port triggering setting in my router that was blocking port 3453.
