Well I don't have any trouble playing games its when I try to host them.

It seems that when I host games I always have bad lat but when I host a game from one computer and use my other I join it no problem.

So I'm thinking its my router which is a Linksys.

Soo I'd like some advice on how I could fix this. Any ideas?

One thing my router has is some Port-Ranged Forwarding which supposedly helps games and such but I need to know the application name Starcraft.exe, the port range which I don't know, Protocol and an IP Address

that's odd, usually you just need to knwo the port range, the ip address is what your PC's IP is, which if you are using a router will be 192.168.x.xxx

here is a list of all the blizzard games ports

SC is 6112

If you could take a screen shot of your port forwarding window it would help a lot. Black out any important info
