Abs, do you have teamspeak? or msn? Also, for that matter I think Bob should be our perm host.
OK:
Click run on the start menu, type in cmd in the box, press OK
type ipconfig/all in the prompt
look at the IP address next to default gateway (mine is 192.168.2.1)
type that into your browser's address bar
there is a password/username prompt. If you haven't changed this, it should be none/admin. Once you are in, I am unsure as to the steps, but I believe you go to port mapping setup, and select the ports for EU2 (2300-2400, and 47624), then rout them to your computer's IP address.
Bob, you may want to look at a speed test online as the speed advertised by your ISP is undoubtedly lower (or sometimes higher) than actual speed.
Here's one I use: Speed tests

Yup, my speed is 526/232, thanks for the link btw 
And I am not a perm in the game so I can't really be perm host

Ive done that, if I hadnt done that, I wouldnt have been able to join any EU2 games. EGO can verify that I have done it like hte way you are describing it. Someone before said I had to open the ports "both" ways, that Ive only opened them one way, could that be something?
EDIT: I have MSN Sid, next time your online on ICQ Ill give it to you.
well technically it should be working for you then witht he router, do you have DMZ enabled?
Well, Sterk, nothing much happened that involved Poland. Which is probably a bad thing for you, but there you go. I converted to Prot, annexed Stettin in accordance with my Dip post, and vassalised Bohemia (which also converted to Prot). I trust you don't mind that, seeing as you got the COT. I believe you are still first in land tech, indeed you could no doubt give me a very nasty time of it for the first year or two of a war. But you're falling behind in economy techs, and especially manus. Oh, and your vassal Prussia is now Protestant; would you consider giving it to me in exchange for my vassal Normandy, which is Catholic and russian culture?
Well KOM, Ego informed me of a little fact. Apparently, when Fanki Polak dropped, you simply decided to keep the sub in jerusalem, when Z-Hold hadn't even said anything about not making it to the session or requesting a sub. So basically, you didn't try to keep Poland alive. I hear that Siberia is now Hungarian. I'm done with this crap. I requested a sub, I almost had one, I got nothing even though one was available.
Hungary only colonize another 2 territories and he told me he is perfectly willing to forgo all rights to for for a cash payment. MY friend Daniel played Jarusolem cuz Byz was in a bad position and didnt want to play Poland. I dont know what happened apparently you had to go and we couldnt get anyone to sub Poland as far as I can remember.
z-hold never showed up in vnet or posted in forums on that day thats as good as being MIA for that session.

Um. I must say, it didn't even occur to me. We didn't 'decide' to keep the sub in Jerusalem, nobody even suggested doing anything different. I admit, since you mention it, it does seem a rather obvious thing to do. (And Ego, if you thought of it, why didn't you say anything? For that matter, Sterk, why didn't you suggest it?) I think, though, we were all rather annoyed with the long startup time - ye gods, we didnt get going until 0715 - and didn't want yet another damned rehost.
By the way, what did you want your sub to do? DOW Hungary? That option is certainly still available to you. There can't possibly be anything more than easily burnt trade posts in Siberia; Hungary isn't that rich. And Spain will support you, as you well know. Poland has three COTs and a gold province; it has been offered Brazil to colonise; it is most certainly not 'dead'. Play on, and fight for the end of Hungarian hegemony.
And lastly, for your complaint that we did not try to keep Poland alive - well, no. I admit it, we didn't. That's your job. In this, we treated you the same as we treated England and Byzantium; they too were left alone, to develop or not as best the AI could manage.
Please play on with us; you are a skilled player, and Poland remains a strong Power. You can make a difference to the game yet.

hehehe Byzantium wasnt "left" alone as much as you think, though to be fair it was Byz that dowed Jerusulem, them jews sure know how to win in impossible situations
Uh, by the way, this does deal with the current situation in Siberia, I know, but weren't we going to have one total colonial culture?
KoM, first of all, i didn't suggest that because when i tabbed back to game (i was speaking with sterk in ICQ because he was leaving), i just heard someone saying "Ego, Please select!". And that was you. I said that sterk wanted a sub to play from 1517 onwards, and you said No. We started the game. Then i noticed Dominus wasnt here, and i asked why we started without him, Z-hold (or God or PaintPostBoy), Sterk and Martin the great (we were missing 4 players!). Honestly, England is screwed because Norway now has most of NA, Sterk is also screwed, the Polish AI doesnt colonize Siberia. Byz is also totaly screwed, losing 6 provinces to jerusalem, and Jerusalem, although subbed, is screwed as well. No offense sid, your friend may have won the war, but he got Jerusalem's Inflation up to 20%. And before, the inflation was very low. He must had kept minting the whole session.
I dont know how the situation in Siberia was, but i remember seeing lots of hungarian colonists going to angara, and if memory serves, that is a gold province, right in the middle of siberia. Besides, this, as far as i have seen, only Hungary/Burgundy did colonize something. Burgundy due to leaders, and Hungary because it already explored siberia, and now all it has to do, is colonize these provinces. True, i did colonize as well, but i was restricted to haiti, and i didnt wish to colonize these yet. And i also believe Norway and Italy did only some minor colonization (perhaps not Norway).
But hell, yea, Poland still can tip the balance. It kept maxing LT, and kept Ear busy improving it as well. This is good. While we tech for infra/trade, he is busy with LT.

Well Brazil is now under the benevolent rulership of the Kings of Burgundy and not really open for Poland unless they fight for it I assume
Sterk don't leave I'm sure me, you and ear can work something out I went through all the effort to make a opening gesture in the diplo thread.
