I can join servers fine....but they can't join mine without getting timeouts.

I just got brand new DSL "Westell 327W Modem/Router," with Verizon.

I did the portforwarding junk and disabled firewalls. I can host games perfectly on other games but not on HyperLobby with PF...

Anyone out there who has knowledge of hosting troubleshooting pls help.

ok i have something like that modem/router if you have a admin setup page you may have to look around there thats what i did and i have a Bell DSL modem/router and thats what i did.

hope this can help you out.

You mean the admin setup page for router/modem settings?

Yeah...that's what I've been going to and while I was on there they had something where you create custom services. The custom services option allows you to port forward the correct IPs of HyperLobby and Pacific fighers...but this didnt seem to help me very much...
