Hello.
I recently came to college, and most of the ports in the dorm, if not all, are blocked. I wrote a request to the admin to open, among others, the worms port, for me, that being 17011. Well, now I can log into worm-net, but only with snooper, and it can`t view the player list, or the chat box, only the hosted games list. I can enter a game, but only with direct IP connection, and it sometimes lags me out.
Can anyone tell me which other ports I have to open to play without problems ?

Lol do you mean you want to play Worms at college ??
I've tried too to play gunbound from school, but it was blocked, a lot of things are blocked i cant even play facebook poker... looks like they dont want us to play.. maybe they want us to work ? :o
Anyway i think you should ask this in T17 forums, they will be more able to answer you :)

As far as I know opening ports are for hosting. You gotta be able to join/play games.
My last ISP wouldn't let me login to wormnet by the game menus. I used to connect with prosnooper. However I found Wheatsnooper handles connecting to servers better. At least my experience.
have you tried wheat?

no, I haven`t. I`ll give it a try and get back to you.
Oh, and for Thedogg : I only want to play on weekends and wednesdays, not every day, but I will have a couple of days free every now and then. I won`t have a pc at home since I brought it here, so at least I`ll play a bit that way :).

I can advise you to visit T17 forum, since their staff can give everyone answers.
