This particular game just doesn't seem to recognize the other computer when you try to join a lan game. I've tried hosting from both machines. I've tried waiting a really long time to see if it would finally pick up. In desperation I've even tried different ports on my hub I don't know what else to do. It seems to work ok over the internet, but I can't connect via the internet to another machine on my lan and I really want to play with my GF. I have all of the networking protocals installed, netbeui, tcp/ip and of course IPX/SPX. My machine has a 1.8 gig processor 256 megs of ram, 64 meg vid card, one of the SBlive sound cards, realtek network card. More Lan stuff. So what gives?
