Connecting through router or modem

Post by suekey321 »

Hi, I just bought Halo and I am having trouble making games. I have noticed that when i am plugged directly into my modem i can make and join games. When I am connected through my router i can still do both but no one can get into my games, it just says negotiating for them. Anybody know what to do?

Open ports on ur router, ports 2302-2303 for UDP protocol or if u use other ports; open them. It's probably under NAT somewhere in your router-menus.
