Hi A1,

First of all; do you have a router or a modem? If you have a modem you don't need to do anything. If you use a router you need to read Eno's post:

If you still have problems after reading his thread come back for more help.

Crash ;)

I had to open ports on my DSL modem for online flying.  It is NOT just for routers at least as I understand it.

best,
