Hi,

i am using Linksys Router to link my 2 pc and a laptop togther.. but whenever 1 of my pc and the laptop login into the game, we are unable to see each other.. its seem like due to we have identical ip address..

can anyone teach me what should i do?

Thank you all for helping me out ^^

Hi
if its an online game im not sure it works really does depend on the game , because the link sys will be using NAT and the games server may only accept the same ip address once hence only one pc can play on the same server, it shouldnt stop both pc on different servers.
