My son got a computer and a Lynksys cable router for Christmas. We share the internet connection, home network, and play games together and with friends just fine.
It's GREAT!!!!!!!!
I run my computer DMZ, so I can host games, Roger Wilco, etc., but one problem is that my friends have to connect to my games by my IP address. They don't see my game listed on the gameserver itself?
Another problem is that I can't use Yahoo! Messenger to send or receive files anymore. I know the router acts as a hardware firewall, but beyond running DMZ, what should I do?
All help will be greatly appreciated! If I need to list more info, tell me what you need to know.
Thanks in advance!
