the issues with the thompson modems, as far as all my tests have shown over the past 2 weeks, is the fact that the thompson will fail to forward multiple ports part of one application
AFK, the thompson modem is friendly towars PS3 and Steam protocols ... so need to forward the ports for them
Simply forward port 3074 (ANY) and you should attain open NAT
NB1:
PS3 users must assign a static IP to your PS3
PC users, the thompson modem and windows protocol make this easy for you, i.e. your PC will stick with the same IP that it first got with the thompson, so simply just port forward to your current IP as seen on your modem interface
NB2:
PS3 users, you MAY attain moderate nat type from this ,,, its very off chance that this happens, yet an additional DMZ should solve ALL your problems
Basically the problem from the start is from this shitty thompson modems that we have - as i said, forwarding multiple ports in the same application will lead to NO ports being forwarded at all
Anyway doing what i said should let you attain OPEN NAT
Then again there is always the way of forwarding via putty if you do not wish to go through the hassle of assigning a static IP to your PS3 - yet with this method you must do it every time your thomspon looses connection or is otherwise turned off then on
Chup wroteDid something happen to the IMEWE ?
for the past week it's impossible to get games <200ms
While 2 weeks ago i was easily getting games <150ms
Anybody else experiencing such problems ?
Im not sure how it works with other ISP's
But with Ogero at least, the IP range that begin with
94. etc seems to be the best concerning latency ... so keep connecting and disconnecting till you get an IP in that range.
