Problems playing and hosting online games via AEBS.

Okay, I'm officially stumped. I've been trying to setup my AE base station to play a Command & Conquer Zero: Hour multiplayer games via Game Ranger. I'm connecting via Ethernet using an AE Router address of 10.0.1.1 and a computer IP address of 10.0.1.210. I've tried the following:
1. Enabled default host at 10.0.1.210
2. Turned on port mapping using the following settings:
8186 - 10.0.1.210 - 8186
8188 - 10.0.1.210 - 8188
3. Turned off the firewall
4. Turned on the firewall and created a Command & Conquer setting using the port name "Other" and inserting 8186, 8188 in both TCP and UDP port numbers.
Nothing works. When I try to join a game I get a timeout error. When I try to host a game, I can see the other players but they can't connect or see me. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kelly
p.s. I've tried the suggestions here, but the problem remains: http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx/.68999f2d/1

I have seen this in another discussions post, the number escapes me right now,
Make sure that all sound card drivers are up to date,
Make sure that you have DirectX 9.0C (Latest Version)
Type: dxdiag
Click "sound 1" or similarly named tab
Slide bar to "basic acceleration"
Exit
Try that, see if it resolves it for you.

  • Having problem joining and hosting games

    I have a WRT54G wireless route and since I installed it I am having trouble joining and hosting multilayer games. Please help if you need anymore info I'll be glad too give more

    You can do a few things to fix this.  One, you can set your computer as a DMZ from with in your router.  Two, you can find out what ports your games use and open those ports and direct them to your computers IP.  Joining games that other poeple are hosting is a whole new ball game and depends on many factors.  What internet connection you have, the hosts internet connection, are you connecting multiple computers from your connection?  This is a good place to start to figure out your problem.

  • Final Cut Pro Problem playing and exporting

    I am having problem playing and exporting in final cut pro. I made an animation in maya and used batch render to render a folder of images then imported the folder to final cut pro but it doesn’t play properly in the video window or even when I exported to quicktime. Do u know why?
    Please give me your response asap.
    Thank you very much!

    As the link that Russ posted describes, use quicktime player to open the image sequence and then do a save.  Bringing in an image sequence directly into fcp will cause extreme performance problems in my experience. 
    Describe the setting (pixel dimensions, color space, etc) of the original files.  One important question is whether there is an alpha channel associated with the files.  You may want to change the codec when you do the save in quicktime player to something more fcp friendly like one of the flavors of prores.

  • I want to play some shooting online game. Give me some suggestion :D

    Hi there,
    I just bought a MSI Gaming series computer recently. Can anyone suggest me any online shooting game for me??? Thank you so much!!!

    Hi,
    If you wanna get into FPS (first person shooter) games, then you really should take a look at the game that made FPS a top shelf hit --- Counter Strike. There are a number of games to go off from there, but in the gaming mecca of greatness there is no other game that even closely compares when it comes to the legacy of CS. This is based on the fact that the game has been around for 16 years now and still garners a huge following. It was the first ultra realistic shooter of its kind. It is addictive because it can be played in short segments as quickly as five minutes from bootup to first round or as long as you feel playing round after round. In the early games you will find out how poorly lacking your fps skills are against even moderately skilled players, and frightfully so when you face off against the relatively skilled. If it is your misfortunate to go against a pro, you will think it’s more reminiscent of Resident Evil facing off against Nemesis. This really lays out the ground work for you learning how to play these types of games, and if you stick with it, you’ll be getting better and better in no time. I honestly can’t recommend another game that will train you and entertain you so much in a single sitting. The only warning I have for you is set yourself some time limits or you will find out like many that have come before you that 5 minutes can easily become 5 hours.

    Hi Julius,
    As you can see in my profile section, my MBP is older by 5 years, 2GB RAM and with regards to question 1 (Q1), has no problems with having all those programs open at the same time with the possible exception of Photoshop since I use Gimp instead. With twice the RAM and much overall much better specs, Photoshop shouldn't be an issue. But you listed some other activities that might need that additional RAM. But the advise most give is to not get it from Apple but from a third party.
    Q5 - I always get Apple Care. Only had to use it once but it paid for itself that one time.
    Sorry, can't help you much with the questions you really want answered since I won't have a new MBP until (hopefully) next week but for Q4, I believe it depends on the peripheral. My current monitors are too old to allow them to be hooked up in a chain. Supposedly, if the monitors do have the ports, you could via the MBP Thunderbolt port. The speeds are also dependent upon the peripheral. If the external hard drive is using a USB 2 port, you are limited by that speed (480 Mb/s). If it has a Thunderbolt port, then from what I understand, we, my friend, are in for some great times because I believe your RAM will have the ability to access data as fast as it can take it at 10Gb/s (and if will need those kinds of speeds, the 8GB of RAM may be the way to go). The Thunderbolt demos on YouTube where they are accessing four video files from a Raid drive, then sending them back out via Final Cut Pro to a monitor are amazing. I'll probably never push this machine to anywhere near it's limits but I can't wait to see what others do.
    Peace,

  • Although I can host online games, I can't join. Linksys E-1000 router

    I recently upgraded from Vista 64bit to Win7 64bit. Since then I cannot join onliine games at hosting sites such as Game Ranger. I have all of the ports forwarded correctly. My issue is with how the other parts of the configuration are set up. I am an end-user, so DHCP and stuff like that are foreign to me. I don't know what to have enabled and disabled. I have reset the router from scratch, same result. I have no idea if I should have my IP discovered automatically, or if I should fill it in. I don't know which is causing the problem...my internet IP or my IP. I don't know if I need the subnet mask for one or the other or both. I don't know anyone who plays the same game I do that has a Linksys router who can walk me through their settings that work. I have tried calling Linksys telephone support and can't get anyone that I can understand. As I said, I'm an end-user only, and computer speak doesn't work with me. Plain English, step by step.
    Can someone help? Thank you in advance for any ideas.

    My firmware is 2.1.02, and I thank you for the response. I have done a lot of work back and forth with this issue since my original post, and discovered that my modem was bad. No idea how that affected my problem, but all is well now.

  • Problem Playing MP4 Converted for iPhone via my iWeb on the iPhone

    Hi, I converted a video file in iTunes specifically for the iPhone (MP4). Then I uploaded it to my iWeb site and tried to view it on my iPhone via a WiFi connection. At first I got the QuickTime window and then it turned to a play button with a slash through it and nothing more happened. It's a 3MB file formatted for the iPhone being accessed from an Apple server. It otherwise plays fine in iTunes and when synched to the iPhone from the iPod. Why won't it play?

  • Guide me as a developer of iOS and also and active online game player of games like PWI, which macBook is good for me pro or air or other if any ?

    Hi,
    I am now to macBooks and dont know which one is good for me.
    Please guide me which one I have to buy.

    The retina display MacBook Pros are very lightweight, so you won't really notice a weight difference between a 15" or 13" one. If you can afford it, get the 15" notebook.
    Purchase the most powerful configuration you can afford.  If you can afford it, get the larger SSD - but, you can always get a portable external hard drive that you can take with you if you find the internal drive is too small.

  • TS1702 got sims free plays update and now my game won't even open. Can anyone help me with this ? tks

    Got latest update in Sim's Free Play and now my game won't even open! Please Help !! tks

    You might have better luck go to the developer's website since it appears to be a problem with the app not with the iPod.  Also, the developer would know about updates.

    I have been having problems with all of online games while using the wireless WRT100 router. I am having problems connecting with all the players... Some players I can connect with, but some I can't. I think it might have something to do with a firewall or opening ports. Can someone please help me with this.

    are you palying computer games, or using gaming device like XBOX PS3 etc. Which games do you play? Did you try updating firmware?

  • New Cable Modem, could not host a game.

    I have a WRT54GS v4
    I just receved a new cable modem last week ( jan 19  2007 )  from my Internet provider and now i could not host game*  but i could join a game... ( via IP or game server ) The internet and IP phone work well. ( Modem brand & model is:  ARRIS   TM502G )
    My IP adress on my router is XX.XX.XXX **  for last 4 - 5 month. ( before and after Modem installation )
    I decided to bypass my router and connect my PC directly to the modem and is work ( i could host !  YES !... )  I check the IP adress of the Modem and it was different of the router adress... ? ( was ZZ.ZZ.ZZZ **  )
    I dicided to re-plug the router back to the modem and re-connected my PC back to the router.  Suprise... the IP adress is still the original one ( XX.XX.XXX **)
    I think my hosting probleme is coming from the router because it's work when connected directly to the cable Modem.
    Could you please help me to set up my router so i will be able to play again and host a game... Was working fine just before the new Modem with my router ( port and configuration was ok and have not change )

    can't think of anything else other than the MTU...try changing the MTU settings on the router to 1396...also , run TCP OPTIMISER on the computer...this will adjust the mtu settings of the NIC card on the computer....

  • Online games will not load...

    I am running windows 7 on my hp slimline s5710f desktop computer.  I switched from wireless to ethernet over 4 months ago and ever since then i have been unable to play on my online games sites.  I get on the sites but the games either will not load,or they partially load,or i get a "cannot connect to server" screen and then nothing.  I have tried everything,i have contacted my internet provider dozens of times,i have also contacted the game site and i get nothing but repetition and no results. Please Help!

    Hello Croppertone,
    Have you tried a system restore to a date before the problem came up? I know it means going back I believe you said 6 months, but a solution is a solution and we are running out of things to check. If you have another computer that is on your same network we can test to that.
    We can also reset your IE settings back to default, but I don't believe your settings to be an issue.
    To set back to default
    To use the Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature from Control Panel, follow these steps:
    Exit all programs, including Internet Explorer (if it is running).
    If you use Windows XP, click Start, and then click Run. Type the following command in the Open box, and then press ENTER:inetcpl.cplIf you use Windows Vista, click Start. Type the following command in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER:inetcpl.cplThe Internet Options dialog box appears.
    Click the Advanced tab.
    Under Reset Internet Explorer settings, click Reset. Then click Reset again.
    Click to select the Delete personal settings check box if you would also like to remove browsing history, search providers, Accelerators, home pages, Tracking Protection, and ActiveX Filtering data.
    When Internet Explorer finishes resetting the settings, click Close in the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box.
    Start Internet Explorer again.
    This can be found on Microsofts KB articles How to reset Internet Explorer settings.

  • I have a problem playing embedded .mp4 video files on safari? Any solutions to be able to watch these videos?

    There is an important training website which I've to watch the videos on them cannot play on safari because it says that it doesn't support mp4 videos? Any solutions? Because I really need to play and watch these videos via my ipad4.

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

  • Flash Player having problems while playing online games on OS X Mavericks

    i use mbp mid 2010 with os x mavericks 10.9.2 and while playing online games, it usually happens some freezes and delays. when i play same game with same browser on windows 7(bootcamp) there is no freeze and delay. i have made lots of search about this and made some optimizations on flash player settings but the problem continues. i use both chrome and firefox on both mavericks and win7 (bootcamp) but having the same problems on mavericks every time. the game is very slow with freeze and delays on mavericks. will adobe make a real effective upgrade about flash player for macs.

    Hmmm... Win 7 will run faster than Mavericks with 8Gb. Even my Vm of 7 runs faster once I get it past all the startup processes.
    It may or may not be a connectivity problen since Windows uses a different protocol, even though it's on the same hardware. Usually though, what affects OS X will affect BootCamp too.
    What browser?
