When you host a game, you need to tell the internet where your PC game is hosting from so the players can access your server. This is called "Port Forwarding", or a "Vitrual Server" and a few others...
You must edit the setting in your modem/router to tell your modem where to send the requests from the players.... if you don't, then you get "enumerating sessions errors". So, you must find the internal IP of your PC on your network, and also what port the game uses to pass on this info.
