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.

windows 7 home premium 64-bit
amd phenom II x4 965 processor
8 gb ram
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti

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.
