Can't Join games (Host timed out) but can host and play with others

Sorry if the answer to this is posted somewhere and I didn't see it.

Since the Ostheer patch I am unable to join any game as it says "connection to host has timed out". I can however, join games in vanilla COH and am able to host games, have people join, and then play in EF. Thanks for any help.

Note: I've clicked the update button and it says its up to date. I have also tried turning off my firewall completely but still have the same problem.

Try with unchecking all of reward units before joining a game.

Thanks! Worked like a charm.
