Hi i have a EitherFast Cable/DSL router with a firewall inside. Im trying to be able to host games and send files but i can't cause of port 80 which is blocked. I turned on DMZ hosting... went to Static routing forwarded my ports including port 80 but it still did not open... Any idea's how to open it or was i forwarding it wrong?

Don't know if this has anything to do with your problem, but I thought that port 80 was used by webservers. Not, I imagine, that a game couldn't use port 80, but I believe that it is usually reserved for webservers.
What game are you running? Look at their site and see which port they suggest. . .I too also thought port 80 was for webservers, but just make sure you are forwarding the right port.

Yeah right, try checking if you are forwarding the right ports.Port 80, for webservers, are sometimes blocked by ISPs, opening this port would need negotiations from your ISP.
