- If you are unable to access your router settings or are unfamiliar with port forwarding, download UPnP Wizard:
    - https://www.xldevelopment.net/upnpwiz.php
- If for some reason you are unable to forward port 55435, you can try a different port.
    - The port must also be changed in the Network menu in Retroarch.
- If for some reason you can't port forward by either means, your opponent should attempt to host.
- If for some reason neither of you can port forward, we will give you a different game on a different platform.
