Finding the Host

My friend and I were experimenting yesterday with bots, host booting, bridging host, and all the works.

The thing that I've been trying to find out is, is there any way to 100% know who the host is?


I've been monitoring my Commview in a lot of Halo games.

First, you must be in the party with the people whom you wish to find host from. Then you must clear all latest IP's (right click). The first IP that pops up should be the host UNLESS you are the host.

A trend I noticed: When you are host, the first person on the list should have a direction of OUT. When they are host, then it should be IN.

You should clear a bunch of times in a row. If the same person keeps appearing first, then they are most likely host. If different people come up first, then you are.

These trends have not made me 100% my theories and I will do more research tomorrow.

Any contributions to this question/theory would be greatly appreciated.
