  The brand of router that i'm using is Accton.
  
  I'm trying to enable the hosting of WC3 frozen throne games on battlenet.
  But it seems like nobody can see the game that i created.
  
  So i tried to meddle with the TCP/UDP in the router settings, but still failed.
  
  Any gurus around?
  
  Thanks

  just tried it.
  
  didn't work for me. hm...
  
  i'm on SCV Cable, so should be static IP already.
  
  But i have 2 PCs at home connected by a router.
  And both me and my bro wishes to be able to host battle.net games for custom warcraft 3 games.
  
  Does that make any difference?

  warcraft uses port 6112-6119..open those ports, assign the static ip to that and it should enable u to host game liao..amd also off ur firewall..

  you mean router's firewall?

  And any idea, should i choose TCP or UDP option?
  
  And anyone knows what DMZ host IP for Battle.net for Frozen throne?

  router firewall cannot be turned off... only can open certain ports for use only.. DMZ = demilitarized zone.. it is not recommended to turn on DMZ unless neccessary.. coz it might expose yur network to attacks..
  
  Yes... open ports in firewall section... open port 6112..
