Hokay, so,

So I have entered the network code and it tells me that my "friend" is off the network or that his firwall is blocking me. I have unblocked Alliance as well as the port number given to me.

Anyone have any other ideas as to get me on the Alliance network?!
First, make sure you have the latest Alliance.
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/alliancep2p

If you do not ... uninstall your current alliance.
If in Windows... delete the Alliance folder in Program Files after uninstalling.
If in Lin/Mac... delete the entire folder you were storing alliance in.
DO NOT SKIP THE FOLDER DELETION STEP.

Now if you haven't already, install the latest Alliance.

When you open alliance -- go to View, then Options.
You should see the port alliance is using.
Open that port in your firewall. Forward that port in your router if you have one (http://www.portforward.com ... or check your router's documentation).

Then PM me for an access code.

Him and I worked on this, I was never able to connect to his computer (even using telnet to the port alliance should be on). He's got some weird firewall issue.
Problem solved. I just moved into a new apartment and have no trouble connecting with my new internet.
Go Cox!

Thanks for the help though guys, I'm excited!
