Hey there Attalus,

Most likely there is a conflict with the age3 and a router setting. The following are some suggestions that have helped others.
Note, if you need assistance configuring your router please refer to your router manufacture.
Verify your Firewall or internet security software is allowing AGe3 to pass through

Disable your Firewall or internet security software temporarily while you test connecting to the game.

Upgrade your firmware on your router and your network card

Toggle UPnP (If you have UPnP on, try turning it off and if you have UPnP off, try turning it on.

Turn on DMZ, if its off

Turn off DMZ, if on

Port forward UDP and TCP/IP ports 2300-2310 to your machine. If that range does not work try expanding it to cover ports 2300-2340, or try using the OverridePort command listed below.

Some routers have a Gaming Mode. Be sure to enable that option if your router supports this feature.

Change your computers IP on your router. Example: if your computer sits at 192.168.0.100 change it to 192.168.0.200

Powercycle your network hardware: Turn off your modem, router, and computer. Wait a few minutes then turn them back on one at a time in the listed order.
