I have read threw all the links I can find and still can not get a LAN game going. Other Games like MechWarrior and several others play great and I can and do share files between all my computers. So my network is working just not on this game?
Windows firewall turned off makes no diff, I run DXdiag and all .dll's are registered and no errors show up. I have a DI-604 router and I tried to set ports 2400 - 2650 to be open threw out my Ip range but nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

So when both your computers are in the game lobby, can they see each other?

No.
No matter wich computer hosts the game the other can not see it.
Thanks

I had a similar problem some time ago. Make sure that if you have software such as Norton Antivirus that you allow the games permission to connect. Also be sure that both games are the same version, 1.3 is the latest. You already mentiones that your firewall is disabled, so if I think of anything else I will let you know. This game rocks in multiplayer. I hope you can get it to work!

I just got the game for Christmas it is version 1.3
I will play around with it more tonight when I get home. I think I will replace my router with a hub I have laying around just to see if it is somehow blocking it?
Thanks

Yeah that would have been the only other thing, the router. I am using a basic Aopen AOR-401M router with 4 ports. I have 3 pc's hooked up to it and all can play DL just fine. :)
