I have a major problem with opening ports...

I am using win XP home with SP2
No anti-Virus cos i dont get virus' anyway
Only using the windows XP SP2 Firewall.
ISP: BT Broadband 1MB

Now, the problem is when i try to open the ports that Renegade needs to connect to the internet. I added all the ports renegade requires to access the internet and then restart connection and try to play renengade. Now this is a port problem. What ever i do, i cannot seem to get the ports required for renegade to open. Ive port scanned myself even after adding the ports to the firewall list and still they arent open.

Any ideas why they wont open?

Are you absolutely sure opening these ports is actually REQUIRED?
I mean: If you are trying to connect to WOL at this point, you will get either
"Connection timed out" or "Firewall Port Negotiation Failed" because
the WOL servers are currently down.

Use GameSpy or something, see this post:
