So I just finished downloading FFXI and I kept getting connection issues and such. I couldnt get passed the checking files when trying to update my game. I hear it's most likely due to the fact that I need to port forward but my dad seems to have forgotten our routers Name and Pass(Awesome.). I heard that if my router supports uPnP theres an option in my connection settings to automatically open the ports with it.
The only two options in my settings however are Connection Check set to disabled(Recommended) and Proxy Settings or some such. Is that the option to open ports for FF?
So far ive enabled it and started patching and after 45 mins have gotten to around... 17% in my patch(The actual patching part) and havent gotten a 0250 error or anything. So im thinking I did it right. THough I still look back every few minutes paranoid i'll see the error again.
TL;DR- Connection Check, does it open your ports for you?
