    Using the default port(10101), after enabling port forwarding, adding the ports and program into the exceptions list on the windows firewall, doing a clean boot and clearing the hosts file on my system I am still unable to host a game on d20.

    Using http://www.canyouseeme.org/ to check the port itself went from connection time out to connection refused
    I have tried pretty much anything I could think of. I have connected directly to my modem, bypassing my netgear router all together. enabling and disabling the firewall as well.
    Tried testing this on another computer running a different version of windows to see if it was my computer causing the issues. same results.

    Been at this for a solid three hours now.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Side note I already followed http://forums.d20pro.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=773 completely and tried everything.

    There is a slight (small but possible) chance your ISP is blocking 10101.

    I'd try setting a different port 10105

    Disable (temporary) ANY/ALL firewall/Antivirus/Security apps including built into the Modem/router..

    Then I would try connecting via a 2nd machine on your lan to the host machine...

    if that works, trying having someone connect from outside via WAN..

    If that works, we can move forward, by turning on each security option one by one, to find where the problem is..
