Windows firewall is off.
I turned the firewall on the dsl modem off.
I do not see any way to forward ports on the dsl modem, but I do see something called "IP Passthrough" which is essentially DMZ.
I'm going straight from the dsl modem to the server.

Not using my router at the moment. If I ever get it connected without the router I'll try to get it working with it.

If anyone feels like it please try to join Skizoke Test Server and post a log of why you couldn't connect.

If by some miracle you do connect then don't worry about playing there yet, server is a bit cheezy. I increased exp a tad too much. I'll spend more time adjusting things like that once I get the network side of the server set up correctly.

It looks like someone was able to log in according to world.exe but they did not post here. Can one of you please try it? I promise I will not bother you so often once this is set up :)

My friend was able to join tonight. Finally got stuff set up correctly.

Thank you to everyone who spent time trying to help me, I'm sure I would have never figured it out without you.
