    Hello,

    I have Alienware M18xR1 with Intel Centrino Advanced N6200 card and have few games installed over Battle.Net and from Origin. I am having problems plaing on-line games since there is big problem with ping and ports. I have opened all ports needed and have watched all YouTube video available for my problem,but still no resolution. When I try to play Star Craft for example, it hangs after 1-2mins of gameplay and says Trying to reconnect or something. This is for all games. Battlefield 4,Hardline,etc... Tried with 2 custome firmwares for my Asus RT-N56U,nothing,with factory nothing. So basicly I am unable to play any On-Line game. Any help please,I am desparate!!! I don't know what to do...

    I found a problem. I took me 2 days to find it. And it was stupid Norton Internet security! Worst anti virus software I used. even though I set Allow for all those games to let through firewall it for some reason didn't! So that is it...
