Author joining or launching a game

I am also unable to connect to the euchre games. I can
get into the rooms, but when i try to join or start a
game..it states that the i am 'unable to connect to the
host computer'. I just installed a cisco router/switch
and it appears to be since then. does a NAT cause this? i
have ruled out the firewall because i did not have a
firewall until xp included one in their os. I have
directx9 and have uninstalled/reinstalled all of the zone
game files.

Look at these two links:

http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/euchre.html

HOW TO CONFIGURE A ROUTER
http://mvps.org/nibblesnbits/PortRoute.html#ports

See "ROUTERS, DSL, CABLE AND NAT" at the same site.
