I have no antivirus just windows defender which is enough from what i've read, should I allow voobly through defender as well? And on the firewall ports I see 1. voobly,2. age of empires expansion11, 3. age of empires HD 11, 4.Microsoft directplay helper 5. steam and steam web helper.... My question is do I open the UDP port for all of them on UDP 16000 or do I only open voobly and empires HD, and do I enable edge transversal (new on windows 10) or do I "defer to user" instead. The only changes I would need to do are on the inbound rules I'm assuming and only with 16000 UDP command, I should leave TCP alone
and not change anything in outgoing rules whether its UDP or TCP unless I'm mistaken
My ports show open in the lobby test, would you recommend I try port forward app to ensure the settings are correct and be done with the drama?
Many thanks guys voobly is a great site and I appreciate your efforts in keeping this great game alive but there may be a problem these days if an app is not digitally signed and there are a lot of people having lag issues after windows 10 was unleashed. On windows 7 it just worked
Thanks in advance sorry about the lengthy thread but I need to deal with the lag once and for all
p.s. Ive noticed (due to several reinstalls of voobly) that the game runs fine for a few games then the lag starts, it lags for about 5 to 10 mins then it runs normal, I'm pretty sure its do with voobly and firewall and not my pc's hardware because ive used another windows 10 pc and it lagged as well
Best Regards

UDP 17600 to 17900 inclusive (Voobly game lobby traffic)
TCP 17600 to 17603 inclusive (Voobly instant messenger)
These new rules should be in outbound rules and not the inbound rules?
