I need to understand what settings (e.g. ports) need to
be openned. I am trying to create DSL rules for our
modems (which are also routers) and I need this
info....no they are no uPNP nor will they be in the near
future. SO, given that restriction, I need to make it
possible for my customers to enjoy Microsoft games online.

Thanks

It's going to depend on the game, and game server. The server sites usually
have descriptions of which tcp and/or udp ports need to be open for network
games.

Most directX games that use direct play use 2300 to 2400 upd I open tcp just
in case, and 47624

But it also depends on the game as to what other ports need to be open, some
require other ports than the direct play ports.
