I've got a MN-720 and can't seem to host any games, is
there a way to do this? I've tried opening the ports but
still can't host, any help?

Did you do application triggered port forwarding or persistent port
forwarding?

I have set it up in Persistent Port Forwarding, but I
have no idea if it's right or not, Gamespy does not give
very specific instructions for my router.

Did you get the right TCP & UDP ports that gamespy arcade requires?

What router are you using?

Some of the ports they list do not say whether they are
tcp or udp, the ones that say they are UDP are set
properly but the ones that do not say either tcp or udp
I've set as tcp. I've added all the ports. I have a MN-720

You may try doing both TCP & UDP for the ports they didn't say because
they might just be using both. That is just a guess though.
