do you use port forwarding? if so then tunngle only needs one port, 11155 UDP i believe. tunngle should have automatically forwarded the port anyway via UPnP which your router has (i googled it). i have a similar router.

that's all you need to do with the router, forward that one port for tunngle.

the bit you are probably struggling at is the software firewall on your computer

which are you using? windows firewall, norton's internet security suite firewall, mcafee's, zonealarm etc.

whichever it is, you will need to add the exe i mentioned as an exception. as your firewall is probably blocking it. that's all you need for tunngle, for stuff like gamespy or direct IP connection its more complicated but you shouldn't need those as tunngle is awesome.

hm, i think the tunngle adapter is missing in your routing table...it says nothing about your tunngle ip

posted on June 2nd, 2010, 4:38 pm

maybe a reinstall of tunngle would work? disabling all antivirus etc before installing.

new routing table after full reinstall of tunngle

Hi, welcome to the forums and to FO from me as well!
I am quite new around here, too. I don't post this much, but love to read the threads, since there is a lot going on here.

Isn't that a little bit like shooting canons at mosquitos?

On the other hand, since it seems to have worked, why don't shoot these little vampire bastards down with a canon? 
And a clean install of windows is often the best thing to do. Not that i am a linux freak (i swear!). FO does not run there, so why bother with an os that needs work on the shell everytime you want to change something serious, but that is OT here...

Good to hear that you finally got the issue sorted.  Sorry I couldn't have been more of a help.

I don't know if I'm ready to try his way of getting the tunngle to work. I like all of my stuff. Plus it is XP. So idk if XP is really the problem.
