GTA IV Multiplayer NAT / Port Forwarding HELP !!!!

[Чай]

I want to play online, but my NAT is set to Strict, i dont know how to solve that issue my router is Vodafone EasyBox 803.

Open a browser and in the address bar type

http://192.168.2.1

You will then be prompted to enter a username and password, the defaults are

User: root
Pass: 123456

You should then be able to find a port forwarding config page.

Hope this helps :)

I solved the problem, i didn't watched for port forwarding config page, i just disabled DHCP :)

Lol, DHCP can be rather useful :P

yes you are right, worked 5 mins, and after that, again same problem, i called the vodafone service but they told me only to search on google "GTA IV EasyBox 803" ....

You shouldn't turn off vital network services like that. Unless you manually set a static IP for your computers, turning off DHCP could render your entire network unusable.

You need to follow the above instructions to get to the port forwarding page and forward these ports:

* UDP 3074
* UDP 88
* TCP 3074

If you need help learning how to forward you should be able to find the information on portfoward.com

Of course if you've figured it out you can just ignore this message. I'm only necro-posting because this is one of the first results on google when I look up "LCPDFR multiplayer port forwarding" (LCPD:FR is a mod for GTA IV). So I figured even if you've already fixed it I can still help out others who find this thread. Lemme know if you still need help though.
