How to resolve connection issues / problems in C&C Zero Hour.

If you are one of the many players affected by the "unable to connect to other players" message in Zero Hour then you have come to the right place. In this tutorial / guide, I will show you how I've managed to keep connecting to other players via multiplayer online over the years I've played the game. In this guide, I am using Windows 10 here (however most steps I believe will work on the likes of Win 7 and Vista too).

1. Run as administrator and compatibility mode for XP SP3

2. Check windows firewall - add an exception

3. Check for anti-virus software – add an exception

4. Set a static IP address

5. Forwarding ports

6. Boot up Zero Hour and enter a port override

7. Turn off your router firewall to narrow down the problem

8. Switch off your anti virus software

9. Switch off your windows firewall

10. Enable DMZ

11. Switch to a wired connection

12. Contact your ISP

13. Try a different computer

14. Try a different internet connection

15. Try a different router
