That’s likely the port forwarding issue. Like the error message says, you can connect to Battlenet, but only to chat; no games can be created or joined.
There’s plenty of people who can connect, create and join, including me. So the system does work. This points to the individual system environments of those who are having issues. If you can’t use 6112, that’s something unique your system.
It’s 6112 to 6119 forwarded to the gaming computer’s IP.
Some things to know are 1) since it’s only one IP, this can only be done on one computer at a time. It won’t work for all computers on the network. And 2) if your devices are set to DHCP, when devices are turned on and off, their IPs could change. Meaning, if your gaming computer’s IP changes, the game will stop working on it.
I just installed WC3R to test this. Nothing changed with D1 or Wc2. It did not affect the port forwarding.
Not every Bliz employee was laid off. In fact, most weren’t. The layoffs were across all of ATVI and XBOX, not just Bliz.
Bliz is working on the issue with the classic games, however, they’ve only indicated so far that they are working on the update loop issue.
I saw and took the screenshots of the Global gateway before we started talking.
Then cease the spamming of private servers and misinformation.
MVP’s don’t have moderation powers, so I did nether one. Bliz did both of those.
