Generals help required re routers

[SCM]

Right trying at moment to access Generals online to play but due to having a router there seems to be some issues. Someone else on the home network can connect to the Generals server online ok yet im unable to.

I have opened up the recommended ports on the router to connect to play but i get the same error each time i try to connect ie unable to connect to the generals server.

Update its all sorted out now so ignore this post.

Question: Are 2 of you attempting to connect to the Generals Lobby at the same time, from one ip?

If you are then you will fall foul of generals ghay one connection per ip system. You will need to get separate ips to get around this.

If not, then sorry I don't know.

Thats only on ICS, using a router works fine.
