LAN PortForwarding

Hello, everyone. I was just wondering, what ports are needed to be forwarded so I can host a lobby game over LAN? My friend is able to see the game, but unable to connect which is obviously a port conflict. I've tried using the netstats -ao command, but there are too many ports shifting for the same PID.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers! :)|||

There is port information contained in the readme file that came with the game. However, if you are on the same LAN, one should easily be able to Host a room and the other can then Join. If there is an error message that they are seeing when trying to connect, feel free to share.
Ian|||Thanks for the quick reply, we're trying to play over Hamachi. I've managed to locate some of the ports in the readme file. Will these do the trick?
HTTP 80 TCP/IP
HTTPS 443 TCP/IP
Roomsvr 30440-30449 TCP/IP

The following UDP ports must be opened for game packets, for the outbound and inbound connections:
Peer Game Connection 3659 UDP
Game Packets 3658 UDP
News Ticker 9000-9999 UDP
Online Team Play 9000-9999 UDP
Cheers! :)
Update: None of the ports listed seem to work for Hamachi LAN.|||Sorry for double posting, but has anyone managed to get FIFA 11 working with Hamachi? It always displays "Connection lost" when my friend tries to connect to the host (me). All firewalls and nicknacks have been disabled.
