I was wondering if any of you computer gurus have figured out how to connect two seperate computers on the same broadband connection to a single server...

I have a LinkSys router that I use to share my present connection with two computers. Of course, I can't connect them both to a server at the same time, both get bottle-necked on the port 12203 thingy-ma-bob.

I'd love to have friends and parisioners over for a shared frag-fest!

Sokhar! It's...starting...to make...SENSE! Networking...that art of making...computers...COMMUNICATE...is just...JUST within...my grasp! laugh.gif

I'm going to try that. I've not installed the IPX/SPX protocols as I've never had the need to. My NIC cards have seperate addresses because that's what the NAT thing needs...but I'm going to see if that makes the difference.

Has anyone ever heard of using port 12204 as an alternative connection for MOHAA? Seems like I read that somewhere before.

Good on YOU, laddy-buck! All the best computer advice I've ever received came from those who were self taught. All the worst boondoggles came from thems what had pieces of paper proving what computer gurus they were. I can see you have a bright future ahead of you. The current tech slump is just that...current. Computers, networking, and web content are still gonna dominate the world.

But just to make you jealous...my first computer was a SINCLAIR QL! Thrill to power of the 16 bit 7.5Mhz (that's Mhz, not Ghz) chipset! I was the envy of all my friends after I maxed the RAM out at 640kb. Geeks would come from across state just to look at it...and I ain't foolin'! LOL Of course, the 8 color 256x256 resolution was a thing of beauty to behold...and the microcassettes with a FULL 100kb storage capacity were straight out of Buck Rogers...

If I Hadn't sold it at a garage sale for $5, it'd be worth a mint now, I suspect...D'OH!
