When I try to host a game and someone clicks to play with me it says "Someone just asked your game info." What does this mean? I still haven't been able to play an online game.

Thx.

No, not exactly.

It means someone requested the details of your game... ;)
ie: someone did an Internet game list request and as you were in the list of waiting games, sent you a request to know your build number or other stuff, and determines the ping between his PC and yours.

If you see the message, it's very likely that your firewall & router (if any) are correctly configured...

but what if the "someone just asked for your game info" message appears but on the connection test it says that my pc is unreachable? it means that either firewall or router it's not correctly configured?

Algo, it means whether :
- ur PC can connect with some people, but not with the Connection Test server
- ur PC has a trouble that makes it accept the incoming connection, but not accept to do the outgoing connection
