So I have been trying to join MP games of XWA using gameranger. It has been unsuccessful as I keep getting stuck at the "Connecting via TC/IP, timeout in 1.5 minutes" screen. I have forwarded these ports on my router and attempted direct connections as well.

TCP and UDP
2300-2400
6072-6074
47623-47625
15999-16000

Finally I set my router into DMZ mode just to see if that would work. In every instance I was stuck on the aforementioned screen.

Any ideas? I dont seem to have any other problems with modern games, and with some older games i have never had a problem port forwarding.

Im running on WIN10Pro if that makes a difference.

EDIT: I also killed my firewall too
