Turn of firewall when hosting or is there a game mode like zone alarm?

Only Norton Symantec. Configured the TCP/IP protocol or whatever it said on the last step on the port forwarding. Allowed any and all access for "Blockland" with to and from connections.Still dead.

an easyer way is to make it so you dont need to portfoword in your next update

Uhhhh, the port forwarding has nothing to do with the software, if he were to do that, Blockland could be used as an exploit to gain access to the player's computers.

What I meant by that, is that Blockland depends on your router to have these ports open, it does not, and likely will never be able to configure the ports by itself.

I have no firewall, but I am plugged into a little hub so I can split my connection to my Xbox 360. The hub doesn't have any software of any sorts, and I've disabled the 'firewall' on my router completely, but I still can't host. I tried to find my DNS, but only found one DNS number - so I have no alternate DSN. Any help?
