      Well what's not working was being able to have 2 people open the game at the same time, the second person gets a network error that they can't connect to mw2 servers.

      Weird. Haven't tried that game but we have had two Xboxes joining the same Roblox server instance and playing together without problems since configuring UPnP with the patch...

        That is wierd...
        @permachill, which version of MW2 are you referring to?

        The 2009 version doesn't use port 3074. Testing just now, I see ports 28960-28962 showing up as external ports and 28960 as internal (remapping as it seems?)

        The 2022 version is asking for port 3074 and perhaps 3075 etc if that is not available. Interestingly it seems to ask for the port being closed when you leave the game, as 3074 disappears from the list immediately.
