They POSITIVELY have to be on the exception list in order to be passed through, that's the whole point of that list.Edit: There is no generals.exe or generals.dat on the list so i closed firewall and antivirus.
I made an exception for generals.exe but it only allowes .exe files not .dat to make an exception
After disabling ingame origin and making an exception for generals.exe now when i see ''connection is completed'' it says unable to connect to other players afterwards.(it used to say ''waiting for probe respons'' and than say unable to connect to other players.
