yeh i cant create my own game too, cos if ur on a router. Your ip is always 192.xxx.xx.xxx or something similar

you need to set it up to bridge mode to have a proper IP

[go you roosters]

and how do u do that

You don't need to set it to bridged mode. You need to set up a manual port forward.

If you get an error when pressing CREATE the error will include a local IP. ( Normally 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x. ) You need to look in your routers manual and add a port forwarding entry for port 21500 UDP to the IP listed in the error message. Do not change your router or PS2s IP.

If you enable UPnP or do the port forward while RugbyLeague2 is running you will need to sign off and sign in again as the game does a connection test when you login.


NOTE: If your router supports UPnP enable this feature and the game can do the port forward automatically.

A good site to check out for port forwarding help is http://www.portforward.com

Lookup your router model and look at the Everquest II example here:
http://www.portforward.com/english/r...erquest_II.htm

In the step where they suggest setting the ports 1023 to 65535 change them to 21500 as that is all thats required for RugbyLeague2.

NOTE: I do not have your router infront of me to test this, it is based purely on what I have read on portforward.com, so the information may be inaccurate.
