    [​IMG] Hey all,

    I have a problem with getting a network to operate properly. I have 2 computers, connected to the internet through a router, but they won't connect with each other. This sucks, as I would like to play games with a friend over it...

    We've made quite certain the version of the game match, we've taken out the firewalls, we reset the network to a new network name, making sure they are both the same... But it won't work.

    Any suggestions on how to get this to work will be highly appreciated (especially, though not exclusively, if they work :p )

    You need to set up an IP for both pc that is in the same subnet. Also the router must have one interface within the same subnet and the pc is adviseable to have this interfaces IP as a Gateway.
    I think you need to provide more info on the network setup (like IPs, brand of the router etc) to get more specific responses
