Posts from Problem when playing through a router.

I bought a new Asus WL 520 GU router.
In the settings, in Russian, there is a tab called "NAT - Virtual Server".
It says the following:
To make services such as WWW and FTP, provided by a server on the local network, accessible to external users, you need to specify the local IP address of the server. Then, add the IP address and the type of network protocol, the port number, and the service name to the following list. Based on the list, the gateway will redirect requests from external users to the corresponding local server.

And there is even a list of "favorite games" in which it automatically sets up the settings, and Age of Empires 1 is there, but Heroes 3 is discriminatorily missing =)

Therefore, I humbly ask you to tell me what port range Heroes and/or Hamachi use?

Or, in the "NAT - DMZ" settings, it says the following:
The virtual DMZ zone allows you to expose one computer to the Internet, so that all incoming packets will be redirected to the specified computer. This function is useful when working with some applications that use undefined incoming ports.

Maybe I should specify the local address of the computer there, as Captain suggested, and not bother?:)

I tried setting it up in DMZ, and, oh, wonderful gods, it all works through Hamachi! *DANCE*

I'll write in more detail later about what and how to do, so that future router-hero players won't have to suffer

I came across some information about Heroes ports:
If you have a firewall or a router, these are the ports "Heroes 3" needs:
2300 to 2400 TCP and UDP
6073 and 47624 TCP and UDP

Perhaps you can find some more useful information here about troubleshooting:

Here's a quote from there:

Example: I have been trying to get Heroes 3 to work through my router for 6 weeks and finally figured it out two days ago. The problem I had was that everywhere I had read the advice was to make an entry in the "special applications" setup page of the router with a trigger port setting of 6073 or 47624, which you set to open the port range of 2300 to 2400 as you show above. This still did not solve the problem until I recently discovered that I needed to also add the trigger ports (6073 and 47624) to the "Virtual Server" setup section of my router. Now the game works fine through the router. Hope this helps someone else out.

Regarding how it helped me solve the problems with the router.
First, I bought a new Asus WL-520GU router because previous attempts to flash it ended up bricking it.
Next, in the settings, go to WAN --> DMZ --> the only field where you can enter an IP address --> enter the IP address of your computer (you can find it when you launch Heroes in network mode and select TCP game; the address changes each time you restart your computer, so you need to update it).
This helped me to be a server and play online through Hamachi or GameRanger, but I still can't connect to other servers.

In continuation:
Connecting through GameRanger usually works; in rare cases, a connection cannot be established, and in this case, TeamViewer may help:

Playing through TeamViewer (may be a panacea for those who have connection problems through the router):

Download from http://www.teamviewer.com/ru/

Go to your email, click on the link in the email ==> Your account has been activated.

Launch TeamViewer:

- Click on "Remote Control"
- Your ID is visible on the left
- To connect to someone, you need to know their ID and password
- Enter the partner's ID
- Check the "VPN" box
- Click "Connect to partner"



A window appears, indicating that the connection has been established.
Your IP address, which the program assigned, and the IP address of the person you connected to are visible.
Then, launch Heroes in network mode, TCP IP.
Most likely, your IP address will be replaced with the IP address from TeamViewer.
To connect to you, the opponent needs to enter your IP address from TeamViewer.

To create a broadcast through TeamViewer:

- Conference tab
- Start a quick conference
- In the window that appears, you will see your broadcast number





Accordingly, to view someone else's broadcast, enter their ID and click "Join Conference".

How can I configure Heroes 7 so that I don't have to enter the IP address? (My IP address is dynamic...)

Basically, I have an Asus RT-G32 router, and the MAC address of my neighbor is entered as the router's MAC address. What should I do to make Hamachi or GR work stably? Please tell me. And where are these ports in the settings?

Or play through Tunngle. It looks awful, but it solved my router problem.

All devices simply stopped detecting the dir-300 after it was rebooted. The settings seem to be fine. I tried resetting the settings to factory defaults, but it didn't help. It was somehow resolved before, but I don't remember how. Maybe someone knows how to fix the problem?

Hey everyone, can you help me out? I can’t connect using the HD mod. I have the latest version, and we tried connecting through Hamachi and TeamViewer. We also disabled the firewall. As a result, I can see the opponent’s game, but I can’t connect. Interestingly, in War of the Chosen, the connection works fine both through Hamachi and TeamViewer.
