Ad-Hoc Via Online IP address

[Relic1882]

I have a neighbor down the road that wants to start playing Monster Hunter 3rd with my boys and I. One of my PCs always has the Ad-Hoc Pro server running. Will he be able to connect to it simply by putting in my internet IP address under Network settings like this? -> xx.x.xx.xxx:27312

I have the port forwarded on my router already. I'm hoping it's that simple so we all don't have to install extra software.

I think you'll also need to open all the port used by the game (which usually varies on different game), since each ppsspp communicate directly to each other, and adhoc server is only used to create the group or friend list so each player know each other IP to communicate directly.

It might be better to use VPN/tunneler such as hamachi/tunngle/evolve where you only need to forward the port used by those VPN/tunneling software.

If he is simulating adhoc via not using a Lan Emulator he also needs to open ports?
