hey everyone, i recently got off my lazy ass and learned how to forward ports (then did so) so i could host a server for a few friends and i. well, it works fine, we all have a great time. the only problem is whenever i open the server the rest of my internet dies and it stays that way until i press "diagnose and repair", about five minutes after shutting down the server. im using vista 64-bit. could anyone tell me what my problem is? if so, how can i fix it?
You provided too little information, but I guess I'll give it a shot.
1. You probably forwarded the wrong ports.
2. You're using Vista. VISTA. That's your main problem.
3. You might have a bad connection, and simply can't support it.
4. Your ISP might be blocking it.
