This has suddenly come up when i try to connect to online games. Im not very computer savvy. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, turning windows firewall off, managed to log into my router to check the firewall - it is already at the default setting "allow gaming through...". Ive no idea what ports and "translate to" means...help

Hello,

can you still connect to other hosted games ? ("PC is unreachable" is what you see when you do the Connection Test when hosting a game, IIRC)

Check your Windows network didn't change from private to public.

Else, it could be also a change at your ISP level (eg: they just started block P2P or UDP connections)

Maybe if you have steam version you should put on steam online. (i had the same problem as you)
