Have you enabled plug and pray
UPnP is required to host AOE III
You may also have to forward ports AND have DMZ enabled.
Is your ISP blocking gaming ports
Charter is blocking my port 80(http) and some of the file sharing ports
You can run the shields up test to see what ports are open

EDIT here is the port info
Quote:
The following list explains the port configuration
specifications for the game:
• Port forwarding must be enabled on the TCP port 80.
• Port forwarding must be enabled on the TCP port 2300.
• Port forwarding must be enabled on the UDP ports that are in
the range of 2300 to 2310 from your router to the computer
that is hosting the game.
