I've got a small LAN in my house with 4 machines on it, I'd like to have 2
people on 2 machines connect to a game on the zone simultaneously, but it
gets all freaky when I try ... it sometimes lets us both join a game, but
then he doesn't show up on my list of people waiting to play, and I don't
show up on his ... and only one of us is allowed to chat, the other one's
chats don't show up at all ...

I'm guessing it's because we're sharing an Internet connection, so from the
outside world's point of view, we have the same IP address?

Thanks!
Chris
