Yes under recent players tab. When I send an invite from the computer inside the network, I check the computer outside the network and indeed I see the game invite notification. I then click on the games invite tab and there's a pending invite to be accepted. I click on it, it tries to connect to host, but then says it can't. This function appears to only work in v0.1. It doesn't work at all under v0.6.I don't know if it matters, but I notice the icons for both host and client are spinning under the recent players tab as if they're trying to load/see each other but don't if that makes any sense.My host computer is a desktop under my ISP. My client computer is a laptop tethered over my phone.Update #1: Closest solution I can find is listed below:Black ops zombie ports? - Activision CommunityI basically made a BGamerT5MP.exe shortcut and added the +set net_port 27960 parameter, first started bgT5Launcher.exe, enable start hostmode, then run the shortcut. But it still doesn't work. Tried also changing the port number from 27014-27019 and still nothing.Update #2: Also referred to link below and added ports 3478, 3479, 3480, 4378, 4379, and 4380 TCP & UDP to the list and still nothing.Fastest 100Fio Networks Station M5 Router Port Forwarding StepsUpdate #3: I've come from experience that tinkering around the Ethernet interface metric value can help.

I've done automatic, 1, and 10 but still doesn't seem to help.I'm afraid I'm about to wave the white flag on this. Maybe something about the game is hindering it from a direct connect and can only be played via internet through VPN. Just a thought. Treyarch locked it down well.
