Just finished the first chapter (modem firewall setup) of a Multiplayer Guide Setup for BG:EE and I was wondering what you guys think. Forgive me for spelling/grammar errors. Best Regards, Tzzimy
I would make sure to mention that your ip address may change and that you recommend setting a static IP to ensure the forwarding and firewall exception always work. That may require adjusting the DHCP scope to prevent the IP from being assigned to another device.
I usually knock off the first 10 from the range then assign 5-10 as static. You don't want to use 192.168.1.1 or 1.2 as they are usually assigned to your router.
