    Logging in / connection/ ports

    I'm in university and they have a network set up. Websites load up fine and downloading files is fine too but some programs cannot connect. Apparently some ports are blocked in an attempt to stop peer to peer sharing. Someone helped me get Bit torrent going by putting in some info and using port 8080. Is there a way for me to login, even just to play singleplayer Bf2? Any replies would be useful, thanks.

    I can give you the port info if that helps.

    For BF2:

    UDP ports:
    27900
    29900
    29910
    27901
    55123
    55124
    55215
    16567
    1500-4999

    TCP ports:
    80
    29900
    29901
    29920
    28910
    4711

    GameSpy Account port is supposed to be:
    TCP port 27900

    ...but the game will query the whole range of 27900-30000 in order to login.

        You need to telephone the sys admin for the school and request that they open or forward those ports.
