Hi,
I once again would like to complain about my problem with creating games. This problem occured after an update, I have tried everything to fix it, but it remains.
I went to internet connections, ticked the "tennis elbow" square, didn't help. I reinstalled the game, didn't help.
It still says something like "it seems your computer is not reachable, other computers might not be able to join your game. Check that udp port 4321 is open in your firewall and router."
I believe I've checked many times but it just won't help.
Same here

Hello,
if you have a firewall, maybe you have to remove Tennis Elbow from the authorized list, and then add it again on the next launch.
(my guess is that the firewall guess confused with the same .exe name, but with slightly different content, and thus block it without any warning)

Hello,
could you load this page :
https://www.managames.com/tennis/online/iptest.php
and tell me if the "Detected Internet IP" is actually your real internet IP ..? (if not, then could you copy/paste everything is this topic..?)
Maybe your ISP just set up an anonymous proxy to protect your PC, and thus the auto-detection isn't working anymore.

Same numbers...
the IP path to your PC = ; 91.154.220.143 ;
Detected Internet IP = 91.154.220.143

ok, then it's likely a trouble with your configuration somewhere...
If your firewall is off, then the only thing left would be a
router..? or maybe an anti-virus blocking Internet packets ?

It's only this game I have any problems with my internet.
Hosting games was working fine before you updated the game and then I could not create any more games after that. I didn't change any confiqurations on my computer during that time.
My computer even had messages like, "allow or deny connection" when I hosted, I pressed allow allow allow

, and it's always the same error message. I'm absolutely 100% positive everything is fine with my internet connections.
I'm very confused.

humm, could you try to install the game in another directory & rename TennisElbow.exe to Te2006.exe ..? (almost no chance it'd change something, but it's just to be sure

)

>> It's only this game I have any problems with my internet.
does it mean you have other games where you can actually host ..?
If before you were asked to "allow or deny connection", but you're not anymore, it means it's very likely something that changed in your configuration...
