Title: Hamachi Question
Post by: Daniel TS RED on July 21, 2010, 03:55:32 PM

Does anyone know if you have to open up ports on your router to host with hamachi?  So far i'm 0/2 trying to host, but was able to join someone's game fine.  Any and all help is appreciated, thanks.

I don't think you have to open all your ports, but I'm not an expert on this stuff.  I'd recommend sending a PM to either BrianGabe or Lambo as they know a lot more.

Daniel it's so nice to have you back! :)

I've never heard of anyone needing to make any changes to their router to host with Hamachi.  That's one of the great things about it. 

You might need to make an exception on your firewall to let hamachi or RTS though.

Thanks guys for the info.  I setup an exception for LogMeIn Hamachi, so hopefully that takes care of it.  I'll try to host and see if it works now, thanks again.
