Jaeren Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi, I have downloaded hitatchi, too try and play online, against my brothers. But for some reason, he still can't see the game I have set up, and I keep seeing him as offline, although he's online and he can see me online. I think I've done it all correctly, this is what I've done. Downloaded it, created a game, then he joined it, he came up on the thing, then I made a game, but he can't see me! Have I done something wrong or could it be that his firewall is blocking it? I can play LAN games, when we're in the same room, but can't do this! Also, I heard that you could search for games, how do you do this????? Please help! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfpenny Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Do you mean Hamachi? You may need to turn your uPnP off, it's a bit bitchy with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaeren Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 UpNp, what's that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halfpenny Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 UpNp, what's that? Universal Plug and Play. Go to your router settings page, go to the advanced settings page and look for uPnP or connectivity or something, and turn it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfpenny Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Depends what router you have. What make is it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurkzZ Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 u sure u have run as server ticked in fm? also he needs to input the ip shown on top of hamaci into fm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaeren Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 Yeah, I have run as server ticked. Apparently I have too turn UpNp off, where is my router settings??????? When he types in the I.P adress it says unable to connect, and takes him out of the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurkzZ Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 try without firewall, id try steer clear of disabling UPNP as things like PS3 use it and it works well for other applications. a good diea would be to open the ports of fm on ure router, that way you wont need hamaci Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaeren Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 Ok, how do I open ports on fm on your router? Is that just the normal way cos that doesn't work! But, just if that doesn't work, where is the router settings too disable UpNp? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halfpenny Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 You need to tell us the make of your router before we can help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
