(refers to Router,Firewall or Network)

Please enable/unlock the following ports:

Ports for GameSpy:

80 (HTTP)
3783 (Voice Chat Port)
27900 (Master Server UDP Heartbeat)

Inbound TCP Connections 2300-2400 2300-2400, Outbound TCP Connections 2300-2400 2300-2400
Inbound UDP Connections 2300-2400 2300-2400 , Outbound UDP Connections 2300-2400 2300-2400


So you'll need to set up your IPCHAINS to allow these.  For details on this go to http://www.linuxdoc.org or http://www.linux-howto.com/
