when i tried with my friend a private match it did not work.

We did it with "connect : 28960" attempts. :/

Does your friends have open ports? If not then use a program called "Hamachi"

Forward 28960 UDP/TCP

Host a Private Match

Give your friend ur external IP address

Tell your friend to enter this into his in-game console "/connect XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:28960"

It works with hamachi?

yes. hamachi was the original way to play this way.

Both install 'LogMeIn Hamachi' -> Go to tab 'network' -> Create new network -> Give the Network IP and Password to the person you want to play with. -> go to IW4M go in private match, and then let your friend connect like; Connect

 

Did it 1 time, hopefully it works for you.

Or just open your/his ports, waaay more easy ...

Me and my friends don't use a port number. I usually host and I just give them my IP. Works like a charm

You need to have opened ports, only then you can join with IP adresses.
