[quote]What I meant is: supposing my router treats packets as it should, then opening the right ports would work, wouldn't it? And that wouldn't even require a NAT facilitator...[/quote] If your router is working as it should, opening the ports wouldn't even be required. The issue arises when the router can't/won't handle the numerous socket connections between you and the other players. Unfortunately, routers don't usually come with an option to adjust this number. <

Reply to Can select department to open a ticket in Support in Stardock Software Stardock Forums

Ah, so that's what that check box does.... [e digicons]:\[/e] This should be back up now, with all new departments! [e digicons]\o/[/e] Sounds like the verify did something to make WindowBlinds go from bad to worse. I would suggest uninstalling/rebooting/reinstalling at this point.

We've been having a lot of reports recently from users of Avira security software experiencing extremely slow downloads. A recent update to their web shield apparently is causing the problem. Disabling this portion of the security suite brings downloads back to normal rates.

Port forwarding will unfortunately not help with this case. It's not so much a open/closed ports issue, but a can't handle multiple simultaneous socket connections issue. Just because it's older than 2.5 years doesn't guarantee that it won't work, but the chances go up after that threshold.
