MS15

A while back I used to love playing on CNC red alert but when the fast game option came around I was not able to port forward because i don't know the password for my router, something so stupid ruined my ability to play I just wish that CNC could take a step backward and remove peer to peer games and have it like it was before, I never experienced problems playing the regular games in the past... I think that alot more people have this problem and it's not only me stuck not being able to play because no one will join the original game without peer to peer. What am I supposed to do?

I can join games with the lightening bolt icon but then it tells me that i cant connect to certain players? Any ideas?
