Well, there is not problem with Open or what I am doing- the problem is with what I am NOT doing.

I'm making no sense am I?

Basically I have a wireless router, and I know what I should do to it (kinda) but not where.

Follow this guide, and you will learn everything.

If it still doesn't wok try going down to J.R.R. Tolkien's dead body and ask him what's going on.

RAWR! that is the guide I originally followed, but it didn't work, my router has everything in different places and different ways to that one :/

So where is Tolky burried?

Or you could just ask me. :D

What make and model router do you have? Have you looked it up on Portforward.com?

Try it without the media VPs active (i.e click no mods in the mod tab of the launcher) and see if it gives you the same error.

If that works copy your fs2open_pxo.cfg from freespace2\Data to Freespace2\mediavps\Data. That will fix it.

Errm... no.

I have an Orange Livebox. Do you know anything about this?

Okay. First things first. Starting at your computer describe every piece of hardware between you and the signal leaving your house.

That means network cards, routers and cable modems.

I have an idea. Open the port on your router to the same port you have FS2 set to use.
