use the search function from the forum, this was discussed offen!

what you need:
1. you have set a nat-rule for your internal lan
2. allow the recommended ports from your game (google can help you)

TIP: create service groups and you will have set only one rule for each game

This are ports from some games:

*  Battlefield 1942   [DST-P: UDP 14567; UDP 2200; UDP 23000-2009; TCP28900]
*  BattleNet e.g. Starcraft   [DST-P: TCP/UDP 6212-6119]
*  Halflife  [DST-P: UDP 1200; UDP 27015-27030]
*  CounterSrike (Steam)  [DST-P: UDP 27000-27015; TCP 27030-27039]
*  Halo  [DST-P: UDP 2302-2303; UDP 27901; TCP 28910]

game not work? view packetfilter.log and you kwow what i need!

much fun...

I have the manual. I am not a bright guy. There are somethings that I don't understand which is why I post. So as I tinker with this I will post what I learn/find, so others can use it. thanx for the games u listed.

you must first define the ports (services) in the defenitions/services menue. its very easy. after you do this, go to the packetfilter/rules menue and add your specified rules. thats all.
