To host with an IP connection, it might be simple to hard.
What we need to do is port forward, and if you need to do this, you have a router.
Go to:
www.portforward.comand find your router.
Go to your designated router and look at the port forwarding instructions.
When you get to port forwarding and it asks you which ports to forward:
Forward ports:
Code:
6000-6005
After that, you will be able to host with your own IP.
If you do not have a router, forward those ports in your firewall, which by default is Windows Firewall.
