i cant for my life figure out why WA (or something else like my firewall) wont let people join the games i create on wormnet can ne1 help me out?

i have a router, but the modem is directly conneceted to my computer, the router is for my sisters\' laptop. will this still effect my connection with wormnet? or should i try to configure my firewall . . .
agian :?

Perhaps you should try punctuation...
A firewall or a router can cause these things to happen. If I remember there was a rather technical fix on the T17 forums about being able to host with a router.
Also playing with your connection settings will cause0rz inability to host

I should worry about it []TheBaker. I have ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) and I can't host either.
So I join other people's ;)

For routers you have to enable some network adress translation (NAT), software firewalls are no pb as long as you know how to configure them, i hosted tons of games behind a big lan with a router, and with ics and some software firewall.

More info in t17's forums.
