<!--coloro:#FF0000--><span style="color:#FF0000"><!--/coloro--><b>Brief info</b><!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->:
I'm a gamer looking to go competative in Natural Selection 2.

In most games I tend to go for the sniper role, this has given me a more defensive playstyle and it reflects on Natural Selection 2. I stay at the base or forward outpost helping the commander get set-up. Once everything is set, I help defend it untill there are turrets in that room before going to the next one.

Needless to say, Marines are my favorite faction. The Kharaa on the other hand... I have no clue what I need to do most of the time. :/

I have Teamspeak 3 and Mumble, I <u>had</u> Ventrilo untill I moved to another location and it started b*tchin' that I need to open ports and with my current setup I have been unable to find a way to open ports.

With this information I hope to find a good competative clan that scrims on a regular basis.<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc-->

    I don't think you should need to open ports for Vent, unless you're running a server. Regardless, you are opening ports on your home router. Depending on the brand, simply go to 192.168.1.1 (often the default IP address for your router) and enter the factory login / password (can be found by googling). Once there, look for the application / gaming tab (again, vendor specific) and look for the port forwarding portion.

    For your own bit of information, ports are special areas on a packet that applications use to ID the type. For instance, ventrilo uses the following ports:

    3784 TCP
    3784 UDP
    6100 UDP

    What this means is that when a packet with a port number of 3784 hits your home router, it is forwarded to the IP configured on your router.

    So... what Continent do you live in?


    Edit: Nevermind I can see in your profile thingy on the left that you're in Belgium.

    I don't know what else is wrong with it. When I try to connect to a server it's stuck on Synchronizing. Once googled it said I should open ports. Which I was able to do in the past, but since I moved (and got a new router model and SSID) I've been unable to find a way to open ports.

    When I use the IP in the internet bar it routes me to Bing.com
