OT - how to enable MP on this router

I'm lost, how to enable MP host capacity on D-Link DSL-504G rounter?

I got Virtual Server up, with port 4000 open (both private and public), enabled D2 in software firewall.

Still cannot be connected. What did I miss?

I also have UDP 6112 open and forwarded

Thanks, but doesn't TCP/IP only require port 4000? I don't connect to b.net all all, so I'm tring to not open those port for b.net.

You will also need to forward the port to your internal IP address. This site is great for explaining router configuration.
http://www.portforward.com/

It has step by step instructions for several routers (including yours.)

You may be right, I set this up a long time ago and I am not sure that UDP is needed.

A more fundemental point is that port 4000 was not open on your system when the game was active, which means something is blocking it.

A good way to test your setup is go to this site

and do the port scan on 4000 while D2 is on.

Odd, now it seems working (port scan), and I did nothing (apart from re-enable "attack and DOS protection").

Can somebody try to connecto to my game?

Same Ip address ?

Got connected then connection lost

Getting about 30fps and 450 ping

I forward port 4000 and 6112-6119 for both TCP and UDP to my internal IP address. I can host any Blizzard game just fine.

Edit: Blizzard has a page about this here: http://www.blizzard.com/support/?id=msi0445p

The computer crashed, I could see someone connected (from firewall log) after reboot. I guess it is the computer say "no MP". Well, my friend has to host if he wants to play some sessions.
