TOCA 2: TCP/IP network play problem?

by PJ » Fri, 10 Dec 1999 04:00:00

My friends and I have been having a terrible time trying to get 3 of us
playing a network game.

We can never seem to get the three of us together. We've tried taking turns
hosting the game, and we can only get two people together, the 3rd person
always times out when "receiving host data" or whatever that mode is. The
host can see that the person is trying to connect, but never does.

It worked once and only once when we first tried it. The next night, we
could not get connected.

Has anyone had any trouble networking?

I should mention that two of us are using dialup to our ISP, and the third
person has ISDN connection to same ISP. The frustrating thing is that it
actually worked fine the first time we tried it, and now it won't.

help?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, we've already done that. It still won't let 3 people
connect via Internet...

Any other ideas?

THanks!
