Does the Gateway support ICQ send files?

Yes, with the following fix: from ICQ menu > preference > connections tab >, select I am behind a firewall or proxy and set the firewall time-out to 80 seconds in the firewall setting. The Internet user can then send a file to a user behind the Gateway.

How do I get Napster to work with the Gateway?

Napster is fully compatible with the Gateway. During installation select no idea when asked about your firewall settings. Set your proxy settings to No Proxy Server in File>Preferences.

I set up an Unreal Tournament server, but others on the network cannot join. What do I do?

If you are running a dedicated Unreal Tournament (UT) server, you must create a static IP address for each of the network PCs and forward ports 7777, 7778, 7779, 7780, 7781, and 27900 to the IP address of the server. If you want to use the UT server admin, forward another port (8080 usually works well), then in the [UWeb.WebServer] section of the server.ini file, set the ListenPort to 8080 to match the mapped port above and ServerName to the IP assigned to the Gateway from your ISP.

Can multiple gamers on the LAN log on to one game server and play simultaneously with just one public IP address?

It depends on which network game you’re playing and what kind of game server you’re using. For example, UT supports multi-login with just one public IP address.

How do I get Half-Life:Team Fortress to work with the Gateway?

The default client port for Half-Life is 27005. The PCs on your LAN must have “+clientport 2700x” in the HL shortcut command line; the x would be 6, 7, 8, and on up. This allows multiple PCs to connect to the same server. One exception: version 1.0.1.6 won't let multiple PCs with the same CD key connect at the same time, even if they’re on the same LAN (it’s not a problem with version 1.0.1.3). For hosting games, the HL server does not need to be in the DMZ. Just forward port 27015 to the local IP of the server PC. There remains, however, a problem with people being booted after a few minutes with an illegible server message.
