Hosting a game

I've read your Sticky report, HYper , thanks for that.
Here my information:

I cannot host a game in HL. Im playing FB AEP. I can go in an open slot, changing the game settings and than save it. Normally there must be the label "info" on the button above right. With me, there is no label "info" to see, also others don't see that. They can read my info by clicking it , but they don't see that label on the button. Others whos going in an open slot have that label info on the button. I can launch the game, but others can't come in. Theyre getting a time out message although there connection with me is very good ( under 100)

i have a intel pentium 4A, 2400Mhz processor
Computer manufaturer is Medion
Motherboard is SIS648
Ram is 512 DDR SDRAM
HDD Seagate St360020A (60GB 5300RPM, Ultra ATA/100)

OS: Windows Home edition XP ( firewall is off)
Games: cfs2 and fb AEP
HL version: 3.6.68
Internet Explorer 6

Anti-virus is F-Secure, F-Secure Backweb ( also when i disabled or deinstalled this firewall, i could not host). i had no host problems in cfs2.

Thanks a lot for reacting,

Here the info:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix: DO NOT READ THIS IS SPAM :D.be
IP Adress........................: 213.119.214.197
Subnet Mask...................: 255.255.255.0

Hi there,

my information:

[NET]
speed=5000
routeChannels=0
serverChannels=7
localPort=21000
remotePort=21000
SkinDownload=1
serverName=
serverDescription=
remoteHost=
localHost=
socksHost=
checkServerTimeSpeed=1
checkClientTimeSpeed=0

I changed my netspeed to 5000 yesterday, a tip from another player to reduce lag.

I have reinstalled FB a few times, but this did not solved my problem.

About my Ipadress: It's changing every few hours. It's a kind of protection against hackers and so from my net provider. Now my adress is ending with .67

Thanks a lot for reacting, Wink

, nice,

Oh dear, what do i have to do Sad

It's not my ISP, i contacted them in past.
I can host games in cfs2 and ubi, therefore its something in your HL
Is there not a tool to D/L to fix that???
