Some firewalls have revealed to have problems with Shores of Hazeron.

Avast!

The Avast! program is known to quietly cause failure of some Shores of Hazeron communications.

The game seems to run fine for a few minutes, then certain things stop working. The player is unable to open/close doors, cycle through the current inventory item, or operate control panels or vehicles.

To configure Avast!:

1. Open the Settings menu
2. Go to the Active Protection tab
3. Click Customize on Firewall
4. Packet Rules
5. Click Add and enter:
   • Enabled: true
   • Name: SoH
   • Action: Allow
   • Protocol: All
   • Direction: In/Out
   • Address: *blank*
   • Local Port: 1024-65535
   • Remote Port: 16757-16783, ICMP
   • Type: *blank*
