Playing games with a Firewall...

Rancid · 2003-05-31 13:30:02

Ok... so I've got my Netsource radsl and I've got my Freedom firewall up and running. I'm using a Netgear DG814 modem/router. I want to play Half-Life ... Any suggestions for how I should set it up?

any DMZ settings on the firewall. That will let your pc act as if it is directly connected

Well first off what OS u using?

If its Winxp disable the Microshaft firewall,

Then run your game of choice, if your freedom is installed ok, it

will ask do you want to allow a connection to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Say yes and play,

this info is posted assuming its XP.

Hope this helps
