Change Starcraft Ports

Ok, I have port forwarded the port number 6112 for Starcraft. But I also want to have other computers on my network to play online and join the games that I hosted. But in order for me to do that, shouldn't I need to change the ports for SC on the other computers so it won't only go through port 6112?

You can't change the port numbers starcraft uses.

Bleh... shitty firewalls they're a pain in the ass sometimes.


I personally set my computer as DMZ so i don't have to bother with the bullshit

Sometimes I do that, but if you have to play over da network. Also, if you host games try letting everyone else join. If that doesn't work then try letting someone else on the network host.

This is weird for me, but I dont' know if it applies to anyone else. I can host games, but if I click join game before I click host, then I can't host a game until i RJ battle.net.

Forward the ports to one computer, and have that person create the game. You can always play a network game (bottom option), but then only you 2 can join.
