I told you how to start it already, but apparently something went wrong when you tried it. Can you paste the content of the Terminal window here?

The 'cd' and the next thing you enter need to be on the same line. Press the space bar in between, not the enter key.

What does wifi have to do with port forwarding?

Borrowing in the true sense of the word? Then just ask the owner of the router to set up the port forwarding for you. If you mean you access the internet over your neighbor's WLAN router without him knowing, sorry pal, then you've lost. That's stealing. In that case, you should shut up, because once we know you're doing that, we can't help you, and instead have to take action against you.

They have the port at a different setting for some other game.
Too bad.
Thanks for all the help though

You know that with the SERVER_PORT configuration item, you can make AA listen on any port you want?

o thanks, but doesn't changing the port change who can see it?

Do you mean you won't be found by a standard LAN scan? Does that matter?
