Unable to join Public Servers, and I can join my friend, but he can't join me.

[BeanConsumer]

I am new to the online mario 64 scene so I have a lot of questions and issues but the biggest one right now is the fact that I am unable to join any public servers, except for one hosted by my friend. But for some reason, he is unable to join me when I host. We have the same mods installed, we've both added port 34197 in firewall detection, the application is allowed to use Public and Private connection, no restrictions as far as I'm aware. Some specification on this would be great, and port forwarding I believe is not a solution since I live in a College dorm, so I don't really control the router.

So from what it sounds like, you can connect to CoopNet just fine, you just can't join any lobbies? I'd say it's caused by the dorms WiFi. I know a lot of schools like to add restrictions like blocking p2p connections.
