I tried to open up some ports but I still can't host games.

Always tells me the latency is too high.

I know thats not true because if I try to create a UDP game on my LAN I get the same error. Not until I installed IPX on the machines could I create an IPX lan game.

Starcraft by the way.

Do I need to open up more UDP ports to host games on Starcraft?

I've had the same problem for many years with 2 different brands of routers. I also know all my friends have this problem.

Even DMZ doesn't help.

Bump for a solution!

Same here. 2 routers, not even DMZ works.

What router do you have?
What service are you using in your router to open the ports?
