Multiplayer issue

My friends and I are unable to join each others' games. I'm running a G3 Mac, they are on PCs, and we are trying to network games on Open Battle.Net. Firewall ports are open.

We have all three successfully joined another player's game. However, if any of us creates a game, neither of the other two are able to join. We have also tried TCP/IP connections, to no avail.

We are stumped.

Just to confirm, all of you are on seperate networks right?

If you make a game on open battle.net, is anyone able to join (ie: random other people)? If all of you are able to join games, but none of you are able to host games, then it sounds like a port issue. Remember that you'll need to handle the ports in your router (if applicable) as well as your firewall.

That did 'er. Once I logged into my router figured out 'port triggering', and talked my friend through it over the phone, everything's shiny. Thanks.
