Problem with proxying

After this latest patch every game I've played where I'm proxied to someone causes it to freeze either in the loading menu once the game begins or as soon as the game finishes loading, it doesn't happen in games where I'm connected to people without a proxy server or through NAT, but even one proxy connection will screw it up.

Got ports 6000-6200 UDP open and UPnP turned off, as this has only been a problem since the update I tried reinstalling the update but that didn't help. No idea what more I can do if anything, please help!

Sorry to cause so much trouble but I think I've fixed it, I reset my router to it's default settings then opened the ports and turned off upnp again, then tried two test games with friends where I proxied to one of them and it seems to work now.

In hindsight then I expect it was some error or bug that affected the router which only got removed once i reset it to defaults (I only reset it because a friend wanted me to try putting it in a DMZ to see if that would help, but i couldn't remove it without resetting the router to the default settings).

Once again, sorry to have run you around like this I did not expect this would fix things otherwise I would have tried it before posting. My apologies.
