Do you have any Hotspot shields or something in your university network? they are banned. Also check if you can access port 6667, which is irc chat, and the list of games is 80 - http. If websnooper keeps to open old WA, first reinstall the beta update, and if it didnt help, then check your browser settings for wa:// protocol, they should be set to Default.

The university might block IRC, which wormnet uses, and even if you do get an external IP it's not too much of a surprise you can't host on a university network.

You can enable it by going to the Advanced Configuration screen and enabling it there or by running WA\Tweaks\RegisterAssociations_Automatically.reg where "WA" is the directory in which you installed Worms Armageddon.

I checked the browser setting and it can start wa3631 now.what a pity that it seems I cant host in dormistory's network.Another is that in hostingbuddy's game everyone can input command or only who the game for can.I think I should let my friends host game for me.
