Creating a game with windows vista, halo PC.

Well, I have windows vista, an awesome video card, a non-modded map. I make a game, but no one seems to be able to join. I have 1 fire wall, which is windows fire wall, it is turned off. I have the ports set up on my router. I am running it as administrator. I make the game as blood gulch, CTF, 16 players and no password.

I could really use the help... Thanks in advance.

double-check and make sure the ports are forwarded to the right ip. maybe you didn't diablse DHCP on your pc and it's been assigned a different ip address. you pc's ip address can be found by going to a command prompt and typing in "ipconfig". you can change it (i think) by going to your network places, then click on "view network connections" on the left, then right-click the connection you'r using and select properties. highlight TCP/IP, and click properties, then you'll see a box where you can change your ip. that's how to do it in xp anyways, i'm not sure about vista.

...or maybe it's just that nobody's trying to join, period.

My brother connected to a different network to test it out, and it wouldn't let him in. And my friends over AIM also said they could not connect. Also, both ports are forwarded to the right IP. Fire wall is off and all, just cant connect. oh well.
