Hey i was wondering if there is a way to unlock or open up ports when im using a cellphone(motorola v235) via a usb cable as my modem for internet??? thanks in advance
 
All ports should be open unless you use a 3rd party firewall application such as Zone Alarm.

Why do you need to open the ports ?
 
well i need it to host on this one pc game (netstorm) and i have to open up or forward these ports 6799 6800

Call 1555 and ask them about provisioning you for the 'mtnvpn' APN.
As far as I know they will only activate it for contract users.
 
If you are looking to Host a game there are a few more things that you will have to change.

To clarify, other people will connect to your PC?

If so you will have to change the APN you connect to to allow incoming connections to you phone, IIRC MTN blocks all incoming connections to the "internet" APN.

Once you have that sorted you can configure you windows firewall to allow the port needed.
 
ok but is'nt the vpn myMtn??? and where in the windows firewall on xp service pack2 do i set proxy ports?
 
ok i phoned them and u were right they only activate that vpn for contract users which is rubbish!!! someone please explain why? and is there no other way? and do all other cellphone networks have this?
