a video tutorial would be nice, but either or is fine, as long as i get help, i know i have everything needed, i just need help hosting, i know the whole process in going into halo, but people cant see my server.

you might be behind a firewall that prevents your server from showing up. I would first suggest looking for that. You could also start a server (I'm assuming you know Multiplayer>Create Game>Internet), check your IP and have one or more of your friends try to join by direct IP. You might also have to hook up by hardline (if you've even got a wired router).

But these are my suggestions and only suggestions. I don't use wireless so I'm not the expert.
