Can't find any battles in multiplayer

[defex]

Hello guys,
I have a problem with the multiplayer part of Shogun 2. When I open the battle list trying to join a game, I wait for the battles to appear but they don't. In previous Total War games I had various problems with multiplayer like "failed to connect to host'' errors or lag but never something like that. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I have a friend that I play MP with on several total war games, and have NEVER been able see each other's games without using Himachi. Will be same here I suppose?

Make sure your ports are opened correctly. If you have a router then you probably have a hardware firewall, not just a software firewall. I had to use DMZ to get connecting to peoples games on NTW. We may have to wait in time for the ports to be announced.

bump! I opened DMZ and disabled all firewalls but still no servers in Battle List. I joined 2-3 games via quick match with lots of lag. Also I changed my ip to static and repeated the above procedure but I got the same result.
