Solve : Firewall blocking game connection?

Answer»

Im playing DAOC and I can never play more than 5 min without getting booted because of internet connection.  The lights on my cable box never FADE, and i set all firewall settings to allow the GAME access to the internet.

HOwever, when i remove the firewall, than i have full access to the game and never get booted. I have used ZoneAlarm and teh WindowsXP firewall with the same effect on both of them. ANy suggestions?There may be 1 or more files needed to access the internet for you to play your game correctly. For example 1 file sends data to a client and another file accepts data from the server. I am not to sure for I don't have that Game, but I hope that helps .

 8-)fffreakHave u tried activating 'Game MODE' on zonealarm? that should allow all things that is needed for the internet connection between you and the server to pass through...How do i do that?From what I can remember when I used ZA, RIGHT click on its icon in the system tray and select game mode.
I may be wrong and it's not there at all, if I am then someone else please say so.
Been a while since I used ZA. Quote
