Hello,

 

me and my brother want to play Zero Hour online, but he is experiencing connection issues. As the title says, he gets the error ""could not connect to C&C Generals Zero Hour Online" when trying to login with this C&C-online login email and password. So the error occurs in-game when pressing "login".

 

• He bought C&C through Steam
• He made an account on C&C online
• GenTool v8.9 is installed and appears to be working (GenTool overlay is visible when starting up the game)
• When running ''Test-NetConnection peerchat.server.cnc-online.net -port 6667'' in the Windows PowerShell it says that TCP connection failed (TcpTestSucceeded: False).
• https://forums.revor...e/#entry1082756 mentions the same issue and it is suggested that the provider blocks the port. However, we both have the same internet provider, and I can connect just fine to the server.
• We added the port 6667 as a rule to the Windows Defender Firewall, but this also did not help.

Any other suggestions how to fix this problem?

 

Thanks.

check your IP under Options . select your private IP. not the NAT IP

How to select it it's just one IP address there?

Please install GenPatcher to fix this issue likely. If this doesn't fix it, manually enter your private IP in the options menu. If that still does not work, please consider using a VPN, like the free version of Privado.
