Technical issues with Heroes III.

This is probably a well-worn issue, but it still remains a problem, so I'm asking those who have actually solved it to respond. In general, I can't play with anyone over the internet. I mainly tested it through Hamachi, using identical versions with the latest HD mod. Firewalls and brandmauer are disabled; in short, the standard set of steps that have been described many times has been followed. It's more likely that the problem lies with the router, as there were fewer connection issues before I acquired it. Therefore, I've scoured the internet for information on opening ports, etc. I used the information from these Articles:

but, unfortunately, all to no avail. Out of desperation, I tried Gameranger, which immediately informed me about the presence of a router and a potentially problematic connection. When I tried to connect to an opponent by launching the game from Gameranger, it froze on the splash screen with an empty menu and a clock instead of the cursor. In short, as I suspected, changing the client to create a virtual network didn't yield any results. I'm writing all this because I'm starting to lose hope. Thank you in advance for any attempts to solve the problem!
