KBPS must be high. The higher it is, the lower your ping can get. It also depends on the server, as it needs more bandwith to give you a higher kbps.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Well any ports that Renegade uses are already opened otherwise you wouldn't beable to make a stable connection. KBPS varies on the player, location, server, modifications, what you're at that moment in time, etc...

Depending on the above and amount of people in the server (AOW) I can average anywhere between 80-400KBPS so unless you're getting like 800 or something I wouldn't really worry about it.

IIRC Renegade uses different ports for non dedicated hosting (it chooses between different ones). The easy solution is to put your router in DMZ (demilitarized zone) which will open all ports. However, this means you're not behind your hardware firewall anymore (as everything is open), so you should at least run a software firewall then.

You can usually do this in your router admin.

Forward the gameport in the router configuration, no need to open ALL of the ports. IIRC the port used when hosting from inside Renegade itself is 4848 or something like that. If you host using an FDS the port is defined in server.ini.
