192.168.1.1

Isn't that a default gateway address for a router? And he doesn't have a router.

I'm thinking if you don't have a router then shouldn't all ports automatically be open?
cDa try opening the port in all firewalls you have (you should only have one)

Guys, your port doesnt have to be open to play.
It only needs to be open if you start your own renegade server.
Cda try using another game on that port and see if it works.
If not consult back here with screenies of whats actualy happening.

hm, i tried ut2004(in manuall it says port for online games *login port) is 7777, no access,
As for sa-mp:
i did check here:www.whatsmyip.org, look at results, should i reinstall service pack 2? maybe some parts of firewall were left behind...

and no im not behind a routhere, just has an usb adsl modem

Have you tried looking for the server in the server master list? Because I had the retriving info thing and I looked up the Argo server on the master list and it worked for me, worth a try i guess.
