Uplay gets no internet connection

Post by Kubismusgamer »

I am using wine 1.9.6 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I want to install Watch_Dogs. When I try to run it, Uplay opens and tells me it is not able to connect to the internet. I have checked my internet connection and other things also work. This problem also exists on windows. Ubisoft Support says the ports 80, 443, 13000, 13005, 13200 have to be unlocked. How can I do this in wine? Is there a better solution?

POL is not supported here. This forum is for plain Wine only.

Probably this bug: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40271

Yes it is this bug, but how can I unlock the needed ports?

That would be something you do in your firewall, not Wine.

And how can I change something in the windows firewall in wine, which was automatically installed by steam. I think I have to change something there. Maybe I have to edit the wine internet settings, too. How can I do that?

There is no firewall in Wine. The firewall is on your system and/or your router. I doubt blocked ports are really the cause of the problem, but if you want to mess with your firewall settings, ask for help on the Ubuntu forum.

How can I allow wine to allow uplay to establish a proxy connection?
