What do you mean you can't host games?

What happens when you try to host games?

You should add a "WTF DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T HOST A B.NET GAME!?!?!?!?!?1/1/1/" option. =/

I can create games most of the time, but sometimes people can't join, luckily it happens not very often smile.gif

The only time I have a problem creating a game is if battle.net thinks there is already a game with that name.

This happens when

A: There IS a game with that name

Or B: I am trying to quickly RM and battle.net doesn't yet detect the other game being gone due to battle.net being a slow piece of lag.

I couldn't vote, since there wasn't a "Sometimes" answer. Sometimes, there's latency, sometimes there's not.

I use Sygate Personal Firewall.

Whenever I get latency problems when creating a game (that is, I create a game and others can't join), I close SC, open up Sygate, close Sygate (without doing a thing), start SC again, host games, and then people can join. It's like magic. smile.gif

I can host games, people can join, but whenever I start the game the my computer crashes and everybody gets booted.

Yeah, I can host. I used to have router problems, but I fixed them. Have you tried opening your ports, smasher?

Most of my friends have that latency problem. As for me, I can host *cough56kcough* but I rarely do. It seems I have badluck when it comes to hosting any map since barely anyone joins.

Rejoin Battle net, then host. Or lower your firewall settings.

The only time I host maps is if it is for a private game. Rarely I do it open for other people to join. Go and configure your router. That is what I did to make me able to host Starcraft games.

I can host sometimes. It depends on whether my computer's internet is plugged in, in which case I can host, or whether I'm using the wireless, which counts as a router.

I can't. sad.gif Well if you mean if people can't join my games, then no I can't host.

But I don't even play StarCraft anymore. XD

I used to host, but this some patch I do not know messed it up. So I'll vote yes.

I can't anymore. But back when I had the trusty-rusty dial-up, *Cough28kCough*, I could. But joining the games was the problem. Nobody wanted me to download their map slowly... illegitimate childs!

You could try asking the manufacturers of your router, or go to their website and check if they have some sort of troubleshoot/faq.

You could also do that router drill/latency trick, but that only allows the people who performed it with you to join.

There's always a slight chance your doing it wrong. I failed like 3 times trying to forward ports to be able to host games on Wc3. Try and find your Router on that site above and it will show you how to forward it correctly. x.x
