and no i dont think i have opened the port : p
the link says that the software checks i it's open, not that it opens it..?
As for your ports, there are a dozens of tutorials for you to find, I would link the one I used, but it's for Windows 7 and may not be the same process for any other. Good luck though friend, and hope you can get it fixed soon to enjoy!
EDIT: Hah, stupid me. I thought I read IP address. Ignore this post.

How do you find out what your port is?
There's no such thing as a stupid question, friend. Also, for your IP address, click this website link to receive your info:

Skip to 3:25 and he begins to discuss how you forward your port. Or you can read any of the guides here on how to do so. Either way, good luck!
Lastly, sorry for the previous post. I mis-read your post. It's kind of late here, and I thought you asked for IP address, not port! Stupid me.
and thanks for all your help!
