last night, my friends and i tried to connect to bnet at my friend's house (he had a netgear router). only the first person to connect succeeded, the other 2 failed.

i think this has to do with the nature of port triggering. can someone verify my theory that only ONE person behind a NAT router can connect to bnet at any one time? or is there some tricks we can use?

thanks!
 
i checked the ports and 6112 is open.

my question still stands, can only 1 person behind the nat router connect to bnet even if the ports were open as blizzard suggested?
 
Yeah, I always have had the same problem. No matter what method of port forwarding I use. However, I could get to battle.net and my friends could just fine. No one can join the same games though. Only one at a time.
 
Yeah, that's exactly what it is. However, somewhere there is documentation saying that you can use up to a certain number(for example 15 users) per PUBLIC IP. So, people have constantly struggled to figure out why it doesn't work when other people have no problem doing what he(and I in the past) is trying to do.
