Global_Inferno Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Right... When playing in a LAN game with a few of my friends... I host the server and then we all connect and then we start up the game.. ALL my friends connected to my server get in and it works np.. I either time out before i get into the game, OR timeout after about 1-2 mins of play... I have tried connecting from both my external and internal IP addresses.. (127.0.0.1 & 192.168.1.29) With no luck.. It's REALLY annoying because I cant play but EVERYONE ELSE CAN!!! Boo Hoo! Thanks, Simon Mansfield
Global_Inferno Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 Also just to let u know... im at the LAN party now so if there is any way in which i can join in.... ?? Wud be much appreciated!
Gussi Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Still not fixed that yet? Maybe u have some software firewall, Zone Alarm, or whatever the name is... do u have that?
A Soldier Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 same thing happens to me. I have windows XP on this comp and Win98 SE on the other one I successfully connect to the other comp but both me and my friend have a swat skin and after a minute I get DC/ed, connection timed out (wtf) No firewalls, no AV...
Global_Inferno Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 nope, no Firewalls within the Network itself... No software firewalls either...
Global_Inferno Posted August 18, 2003 Author Posted August 18, 2003 In FACT... after somone else asking to host... I STILL timeout.. and they don't! Only thing is... Same Motherboards, CPU's, GPU's, Fresh installs of VC and fresh MTA.... Explain??
