Can't find/join servers in Battlefield 1942?

BF1942 is one of my all time favorite games but I installed it again recently (haven't played for at least 3 years) and it's driving me nuts. I patched it to the latest (final) patch. In the game, in multiplayer I go to update/refresh and no servers ever come up. So I use Gamespy Arcade and it finds a good amount of servers, I find one and try to connect and it loads up, about 5 seconds later I get the failed to connect message. Bah. Next step is to configure my router/firewall since I figure that's the problem. So I open up all the correct ports, turn off my software firewall. I try another server and get the failed to connect thing again, and the in-game server browser still finds nothing. Now it's getting aggravating. So now for the last resort, good ole' DMZ mode, nothing fails in DMZ mode. Wrong.

It's not a connection problem apparently, with it still not working in DMZ mode and with no firewall (hardware or software). Same prob before patching also, so I don't think it has to do


either download it or buy it off gamestation sorry that the only answers i can give you
