So I've recently gotten really into the GoW2 Horde mode online multiplayer action. BUT, as great as the game is, I keep getting booted for having lost connection to the host. Also, my game says I have a Strict Firewall set up?

Can anyone help me here on how to fix these problems? I know I lost connection to the host, anyway to prevent this from happening?

I looked up that to change the firewall settings you need to "input your ip address into a browser" and do some stuff. I have no idea how any of that works, can anyone put it step by step in stupid-people terms? Thanks a lot!

if you are on the xobox 360 look at the setting  of your xbox and look for your ip address and copy it on a paper and then add it to your GOW2.

If you are on a pc look for the command option and write the ipconfig/ all and look for your ip4 address.
