Hey everyone, since I keep saying I want to play KKND2 with you lot some time, I should be able to set up a game, right? I'm not stupid, but I just don't seem to be able to connect up...

I tried to play a game with my brother across the Internet. Both of us have XP Pro and had our XP firewalls off. We both checked our IP addresses using http://www.whatismyip.com, and we both took turns hosting and joining. Nothing came up in the games screen - that basically means no connection, right? It must be something to do with the fact that I couldn't PING my brother's machine. what would stop this from happening?

What's more, I know the KKNDs are compatable. Both are US version and have the patch, and we had no problem playing a LAN game this weekend.

Do you think the problem could be the router? I'm sure it doesn't block anything, but something is stopping me from seeing the other machine. Any ideas?

The router probably has a firewall. I have discussed this in the Support pages.
