Go into more detail about what your doing so we can narrow down the possibilites. For servers download all seeing eye, and select filter ireland and it will show all the servers for selected game in ireland. Theres a whole load of irish qw servers up atm, the most used is games4.iol.ie.

31/01/2006 08:43 #3 CH Mr. CH bite my shiny metal ass! clan : fish heads posts : 98 its been well over 1 year since I played with a netopia... you need to do something like... 1) give your PC a static IP, e.g. 192.168.1.2 2) on the netopia go to: expert mode > configure > advanced > pinholes (pinholes are netopias equivilant for port forwarding/PAT) 3) enter the external port number the world should connect to your qw server on, e.g. 27500 4) enter the internal IP address the external port should get forwarded to (192.168.1.2) 5) enter the inernal port that the external port should get forwarded to (27500) 6) submit, save, restart the router. 7) modify the rules of any firewall (s/w or h/w) you have to allow incoming TCP connections to 27500 8) get your external IP address http://www.whatismyip.com/ 9) tell all ur qw buddies to connect to: externalipaddress:27500 hth

31/01/2006 10:58 #5 dest Owen McNally posts : 109 ye i tryed all that ch, still no joy. might be that im running through the netopia router into a wireless dlink one fucking the whole thing up. pain in the arse tbh. ive got FTP/HTTP/SSH running through it grand but for some reason it just doesnt like quake servers :(

31/01/2006 12:52 #6 MIXU matty mc cloud QW posts : 209 site administrator ive donated to quake.ie! dest: quakeworld uses UDP, btw.

31/01/2006 13:22 #7 dest Owen McNally posts : 109 ye i had both tcp and udp forwarded. still didnt work.

07/02/2006 17:53 #9 dest Owen McNally posts : 109 dlink 624+, yeah im using virtual server.

09/02/2006 21:08 #10 bAz bAz hurray for chess(e) posts : 288 youre better off using the special application settings, its the application button underneath Virtual Servers. If youre stuck you could set your qw machine as the dmz, although I dont advise that.
