Internet Gaming Problems

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: daunting

Hi everyone. I'm still having trouble with various games connecting to gaming zones and IP to IP with other computers.
I have a cable connection, going through a Linksys 10/100 5-port Hub. I have not run the network wizard. I have two home computers, running through the hub, each with a separate IP address.
My computer is running Windows XP home edition. I have shut off the XP firewall. I have all ports open, I think, at least that's what it says under Advanced Properties.
I have just finished reformatting and reinstalling XP trying to solve the internet connection problem. Problem persists. I can play on Battlenet and EA Online. I can't join ZoneMatch. I can join IP to IP with Roger Wilco (voice over net) and Empire Earth, but not with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003 or Dungeon Siege.
I always play with the same friend, his computer is not the problem, mine is.
The problem is identical if I connect directly to the internet or through the hub.
Any help?
