Ok so the school opened up the ports for wolfenstein as presented on activision.com....ive turned off my personal firewall and i have no anti virus software loaded onto the computer....punk buster is enabled as well....it doesnt let me connect to ecgn 205.177.13.42. it says waiting for connection.....also, i cant see the server list..just says getting response from master server. The IT Dept opened up ports IP protocol and UDP ports 27950, 27960, 27965 and 27952 for the game.....anyone have any suggestions...I also downloaded service pack 2 which includes a firewall..but ive turned that off......Im gonna try it out on my laptop later on this evening....Anyone have any suggestions?

I just got Wolf back a week ago.. and already I can't play, because it says my CD key is invalid.. and I can't find the case >/ I have the discs, but no case GRR

So I bought a new one ebay.. just have to wait for it to get here

I'll bet you it's service pack 2. All kinds of things are being screwed up by SP 2. i know halo PC won't work unless you get the fix for it. I've seen a lot of complaints that about programs not working lately and they all seem to have something to do with service pack 2. one guy even had to reformat because of it.

ehhh..i reformatted alrdy and then installed sp...so ill try it out on laptop and if it works then ill be reformatting once again...damn them...

i have SP 2 with the firewall enabled...did you go into the settings through the control panel and allow it to connect?...after i first installed SP 2 everytime i used a program that connected with the internet it showed an aprrove connection dialogue..so i'm pretty sure it's not SP 2

Try pinging the server and see if you get a reply. Do you have internet access from the computer with Wolf on it? Can you join a game from home using the same computer?

by **hitznrunz** » Wed Oct 27, 2004 5:15 pm

yea it pings the server.. ranges from like 38ms to 80ms

by **hitznrunz** » Wed Oct 27, 2004 5:59 pm

if i do start run ping 205.177.13.42...i can ping...if i try to ping inside the wolf console..it doesnt let me....i tyep ping [205.177.13.42] and it freezes for like 5 secs and thats it

Their firewall doesnt have the right ports opened up.

Do this.

When Wolf isnt running type:

netstat -a

at a command prompt and note the output.

Then fire up wolf and alt+tab out and do netstat -a again.

compare the two and it will show you exactly the ports that need to be opened by their firewall.
