    Hola,

    Seen this a few times in the forum, been unable to find a solution.

    Followed CrazyIvan's detailed post on getting it running, everything worked just as it was supposed to except, when I attempt to connect via LAN (game machine to dedicated host) it does not connect.

    I browse and can see the game, no problem. It also show's up no problem in HyperLobby (but I get Timeout's).

    Could this be related to the mg_snd.dll file?

    Hunter,

    Yes, LinkSys router with Cable Modem. Dedicated server has Port Forwarding (both TCP/UDP) for Port 21000 and is the lowest number on the Internal IP Lan.

    Game Machine is now changed to Port 22000.

    can you join if you go through the game and use your router IP for that machine? ie 192.168.1.101

    Sounds like a port mismatch.Your server is port 21000 and your game machine is 22000.Put both machines on 21000 but only forward port to the server.

    Tried that, no luck.

    I can browse and see the server, when I try to connect it just sit's at the "Connecting" dialogue box.

    Here is an update, followed CrazyIvan's post to a "T".

    When I attempt to connect from within my own LAN, the joining machine stay's at the "Connect to server, Please Wait" dialogue box.

    The Server display's this message "Socket Channel NOT created ():192.168.1.6:21000"
