Sorry, credit goes to [ReBel] on THIS board who supplied me with settings that for unknown reasons work.

Here's his info from another post:
[I am using a LinkSys router also, and have been hosting just fine without using the DMZ feature.
Here's what I'm doing:
1.) Static IPs (DHCP disabled).
2.) Advanced, Filters - DISABLE SPI, ENABLE Block WAN Request, ENABLE Multicast Pass Thru, ENABLE IPSec Pass Thru.
3.) Advanced, Forwarding, Ports 12200 to 12220 (both UDP and TCP).

Thats it, hope this helps]

Well ReBel, it did but i don't understand why. Like i said before, the only problem i have now is with GameSpy. (server name not showing & "server full" when in fact it's not).
Thanks all who chipped in ideas. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I posted about this a while back. Firstly, as long as you have the latest firmware, DCHP doesn't need to be disabled. Also, DMZ may work, but I would recommend against using that option, because it totally opens your computer up to the internet.

I have this router here's how I have everything set (works perfectly fine):

- DCHP is ENABLED starting at the default 192.168.1.100 (although you can use whatever you like, as long as it's in the same subnet as the router's IP).
- Use 'ipconfig' to get your IP address, and on the 'Forwarding' tab, forward ports 12201-12203 (used by MoH:AA) and port 12300 (needs to be there for Gamespy to report correctly) to your computer's IP.
- DMZ is set to the default 192.168.1.0

That's it. The reason you were having problems is because you had ports being forwarded to 192.168.1.10, plus you had DMZ enabled for the same IP. That doesn't work correctly (if it's for the same IP), you have to use one or the other.

Hope this helps,
WeRD
