alright, i'm using an smc barricade wireless router (smc7004vwbr-ca) and i have disabled xp's firewall as well as the router's firewall. wep is also disabled.

anyways, i can't host warcraft 3 games, because of the router i presume.

how do i fix this?

Set a static IP on your computer and make sure the ports are forwarding to it

...and enable the firewall again!
