Playing via LAN

Well it didn't work. I did everything like you said. Host to 21001 and client port to 21000. No luck. This message appeared, when my colleague wanted to join:

The communication with the remote host is lost: Timeout 1.

Sometimes he could see me, when he tried to connect, sometimes not. Isn't there a more simple way or tool? Is a dedicated server a solution?

Timeout 1

Are you using mods ?

Try to connect using v408m no mods.

In the conf ini

Turn

CRT=2

to

CRT=0

If you want to use the hyperlobby with both of you behind a router.

OK, thanks. We will test it at our next meeting.
