I've forwarded ports, set firewalls ablaze, etc and can now play online.
HOWEVER:
In almost all matches there's one person I can't connect to! This has happened so often that players have come to recognize me as a bane!!! (( Almost everytime I join a custom game or attempt to skirmish there's only one person I continuously "attempt to connect" to. That person connects to me but I cannot connect to them, most of the time and sometimes vice versa.
The result is that I get kicked and generally avoided as a player!!! This saddens me greatly since I am a great Rook player and want to have fun!!
To make matters more interesting, I've read other players complain about this same problem in the online chat!
Please help me find a solution?
Sincerely,
Boxleitner
The proxy did seem to help a little bit. Too bad, it takes a while until it works and I usually get kicked from most games quite fast for having a yellow ping.
Same issue here too.

Please also note... This WILL NOT fix Pantheon and Skirmish games because that is broken on Stardocks end. Nothing we can do about it except wait for a fix... (This will/should make custom games playable for now though!)
Update from Boxleitner:
I've been running Demigod with /serverproxyonly since Frogboy first suggested it, and have been able to play a great number of games online. I have all firewalls down and have forwarded the correct ports.
However, there are still people I cannot connect to. They appear as green 0ms speeds on my screen and in the connection information screen THEY connect to me but I cannot connect to them. Either of us rejoining the lobby does not help. Waiting for a while does not clear the issue. People still avoid or kick me from their games on site because of this. Even my friends are distressed with me because I create connectivity issues which result in having to kick people from the lobby!
I've been trying to tell those players who i cannot connect to that they should use /serverproxyonly as well, but I don't think they are listening to me. I also do not know whether, at this point, that will help.
I'd appreciate more information andany advice I can get.
