Haha. Do you use the chat lobby? What is your name there? As for the fail to join game, either your ISP blocks the ports, you need to forward the ports, or firewall isn't allowing access for the game.

Well RTW is unblocked (as well as gamespy) and EB is not listed as a program to unblock... I also can join games using vanilla and only receive the message every once in a while...

what ports would they be btw?

O and Hannibal... yes it is I. Did you ever manage to fix your stuff?

Find the ports and apply the same modifications to your router. I chose the WRT54G as it is generic. Visit portforward.come and proceed by selecting your router, then selecting Rome Total War. Instructions seem simple enough.
