Ive been trying to get help for this on many threads, and i have, but there are so many variables which i am having trouble. I need a step by step HOW-TO for getting a friend to connect to my shard. Here is my info.

ME: Using Ultima Online 9th aniversary. Patched up to 5.0.8.1 Patch40
- Windows Vista
- connect to home network router and then internet

FRIEND: Using Ultima Online 9th aniversary. Patched up to 6.0.9.2 Patch70
connected to home network (wireless. he can be connected straight into a router if needed)

We Both cannot patch futhur. Mine says "error during session". i dont think his does.

my ip is 64.231.255.239 (dynamic). I used No-ip to make it "craigcohen.no-ip.biz"
when i run my server is shows address of 10.5.1.2:2593

We both use razor, latest version as far as we know.

I am able to connect to my game fine.
We tried it over wireless. He has a wirelss router and we both have wiresless comps. He told into razor to connect to 10.5.1.2. It goes to "verifying account" and the times out. we tried the same thing with razor connecting to "craigcohen.no-ip.biz and it still stuck on verifying account.
We went into his wireless router settings and port forwarded using portforward.com (router is a smc8014w-g) we put in 2 into the initial box. I tried the "make your ip static" here PortForward.coml. but when i got to put in the new address, it said to put in any address as long as its the same as the router address but the last number needs to be different. i tried 10.5.1.xx (xx being any number) and it says invalid address for any number i put in for xx.

Im assuming here that when i go into the server, the 10.5.1.2 is the address of my router. if thats wrong then how do i find my routers ip (since im sure theres a diff between my comps ip and my routers ip).
What does he put into razor? We tried it with my comps ip, the ip given on the server, and craigcohen.no-ip.biz.
I assume the no ip thing and making a static ip are the same thing except one using a website right? is one preferred to use? cause im unable to make a static ip as stated above.

The last problem which i think i might have, is that i port forwarded UO using portforward.com which has a section for Ultima Online. but i never thought that the ports it lists for uo are for OSI and might be different from the ports in my comp. the only port i need open is 2593 right?

all firewalls are off. Im using AVG free version. so the only thing to disable is the resident shield.

There are so many variables here and so many things we could be doing wrong. we also have a regular router and tried connecting directly with LAN without success. any help is appreciated. The best is for someone to chat with me over msn and help me out. my msn is cohenc00@hotmail.com.

PLEASE HELP! thanks.

(anyone feel free to try and connect. ill leave the shard on)
