Can someone help me setup a BF2142 Demo server?

[Yoda_Glenn]

Hello everyone, I am in need of help for setting up a BF 2142 demo server. I have the Demo Server program running on my computer, but I do not see my server showing up in the server list of my BF 2142 Demo game.

I have three computers which are hooked to a LinkSys WRT150N Router, which, in turn, is hooked to a cable modem. One of these computers is my demo server, and the other computer was what I was using to test the server out. The demo server read me file says:


In order to host a Battlefield 2142™ server, you must have the following ports open in your firewall.

UDP 27900
UDP/TCP 29900
TCP 80
TCP 4711
UDP 27901
UDP 1500-4999
UDP/TCP 1024-1124
UDP 29900
UDP/TCP 27900
UDP 16567
UDP 55123-55125
UDP/TCP 18000
UDP/TCP 18300

But how exactly do I free up all of these ports? I have the Windows XP firewall turned OFF on the demo server, by the way. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!

By the way. When I go to my LinkSys firewall port menu, I have these options to change:

External Port Internal Port Protocol To IP Address Enabled



But I don't see anything that says UDP or TCP.

Ahhh, I see the UDP/TCP Option....I'm getting there...

I now only see 10 slots for changing the UDP/TCP information. Any ideas what I should do?

Group them eg: instead of opening:
UDP 27900
UDP 27901
UDP/TCP 27900

Open:
UDP/TCP 27900-27901
