Hey guys,

 

Yesterday I could play iw5m correctly with no problem, today I started one match...Good game, then I closed it to get something to eat, then I started iw5m and joined a server. Now the problem is everytime I join a server then the game works fine for like 10/20 seconds then the ingame starts freezing, people stay on their places and you see the feet running, then I get the connection lost thingy.

 

Things I tried todo, was deleting cashes, player folder, resetted my whole router to fabrik settings, turned my firewall off and tried again same problem.

 

So do you know anyfixes?

Disable your Router Firewall and restart your router.

Disable your Router Firewall and restart your router.

I can't find it, I have the Thompson TG712

 

Error is caused due to your 'Router Firewall' blocking port 3074. Login to your router interface and disable your router firewall and it should work.

Also is your router a Thompson TG Series?

Your router is the issue, For some reason the Thompson TG router interface's don't work.

Ugh, so there is no fix for it? The only fix here is to throw this router out of my window and get a new one other then the thompson series?

Well there is one, just search through the forums.

Just wondering (sorry for jacking the thread)

What usually causes freezing in-game?

Its not Time Sync, sice that doesnt fix this issue at all.

You need to forward port 3074, but since your router interface doesn't work you need to forward the ports from your computer itself.

 

First of all delete any similar portfowarding entries containing the port 3074

Then

 

go to control panel -> network and internet -> network devices -> right click on ur router -> properties -> settings(wait some time)-> add->

give a name to the rule (ex: iw5m), type ur ip (go to cmd and type ipconfig for ur ip), then choose UDP and write 3074 on the two textboxes then ok -> ok

and thats it.

Well that isn't working though, well it worked for 1 game, and now it isn't working again.

Have you tried doing it again?

Try setting a static internal IP

Yes i've tried doing it again, but it's not working. This is getting on my nerves:/ we're running out of options I think

I use to advice people to get a decent router (Thomson TG series isn't a decent router)

If you're not willing to get a decent router, all you can do is keep repeating this process

go to control panel -> network and internet -> network devices -> right click on ur router -> properties -> settings(wait some time)-> add->

give a name to the rule (ex: iw5m), type ur ip (go to cmd and type ipconfig for ur ip), then choose UDP and write 3074 on the two textboxes then ok -> ok

and thats it.

and pray that it works on a router like that.

My ISP provided me with one of those routers, and I just replaced it.
