The problem is probably the router, I know. But I don't know what to change in the settings. Thx for your help!

I've found your router's user manual here: ftp://ftp.netgear.de/download/DG834GB/D ... N_BETA.pdf
Lemmi know if that's wrong.

Log into your router by going to http://192.168.0.1

Go to the "Inbound Services" section. This is where you need to allow Allegiance to get through.
Look at the existing services menu - do you see any "Microsoft Games"? It should list 2300-2400 there. If you can't find "Microsoft Games" then add a new one.

Trigger port: 47624 TCP
Inbound ports: 2300-2400 TCP/UDP
