Bug Description

I've been trying to play S2 RTTR over Direct IP and Network Lobby with my girlfriend and we just get 'Connection Failed!' errors. I don't have access to our router at the moment so I can't see if 3665 is open. I suspect the problem is that we are sharing the same Internet connection, (she's at my house on her laptop, I'm on my desktop) and that's maybe causing complications?

Do you think that might be the case? Is there any hope of LAN play on the horizon?

Hi,

if you're in the same LAN, you should use your lan-ip to connect to -
connection via lobby won't work - most routers dont implement the
forwarding correctly :(
