Beyond the obvious???
Open udp ports 5060-5070 and 10000-20000 in your firewall. |

Click the "Start" icon.
Click "Control Panel"
Click "System and Security"
On the right pane you will see Windows Firewall listed.
Next to it, click "Allow a program through Windows Firewall" |

You also need 80 and 443 if they are not already open. |

You may need to open these ports on your router. Don't ask how to do that; read your manual. |

If I open ALL these ports, what is the use of firewall?
This is dangerous.. |
