nothing. so close yet so far....

OK, I'm up and running with Leland, come on guys 208.191.146.111

this sucks, I wish it worked better.

am trying but no joy.

bummer, this should be so much better, but I think it's the game software in some instances, and your isps in some others...

nothin' here, again...

At this point, I have to think that the fixes for xp are making a bad program worse. I guess I'm stuck just playing w/ myself. :(

I blame AOL.

How does everyone know what their IP is?

I was able to connect to emcons IP address yesterday, but no luck today.

Ditto.


I can try and give it a shot. Try 192.168.2.2

try the link a few pages ago: (something like whatismyip.com)

Meanwhile, i did the same thing and found my real IP to be:

69.3.28.71

Someone feel like trying?

/ j

argh! nothing.

Wanna try mine?

195.93.34.13

no luck,

j

Next: 4.10.182.194

That website gave my IP to be 195.93.34.13 but in the create a game window it says 81.145.108.86

Does that mean anything?

No luck Eric...:(

ok this sucks. I dumped my router and I am plugged straight into the modem

somebody try 166.82.68.217

has everyone tried me, two others are there, Leland and Pari,

208.191.146.111

PS when you setup the server it puts the ip in the top right corner of the screen (in the game), but several of you have noticed that you have two different ips, you are getting natted by your isp.

aaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Steve just tryied your again with no router. no go :(

Anone want to try my in-game IP then?


81.145.108.86

ok, leland is going to try to host in a minute

OK, fellas, if you have one ip on your machine, but you get something else when you go to www.whatismyip.com, then you are being NAT'ed by your isp, and that is probably causing the problem.

osidak do you have the V3.5 patch?

Just got in to Osidak's game! (166.82.68.217)

I'm in as well!

According to whatsmyip.com, my IP is 69.144.218.65

I went to a couple sites and one gave me a different number... but three others gave me this one.

I'll go start a server and if no one has got on in 5 minutes, I'll post back here...
Stand by to stand by..

Would someone please email the 3.5 patch to me? Thanks!

It says for Osidak's IP

The host of the game is running a different version???????????

Ok, I'm up and running at 69.144.218.65


For what it's worth... both the game and whatsmyip are giving me the same number... so I hope that means I'm not "natted".

No luck getting into osidak's game. I tried 3 times and got connection lost!

OK, I'm connected to Leland at 69.144.218.65, but I couldn't connect to osidak, I'm not sure if you can connect during a race or not, so that might be part of the problem.

I really blame AOL!

we had a good game going at osidak's, but he had to go. I'd happily join at leland's IP.
/ j

doh...i'm off to bed!

Leland had to go, so we went back to my ip, wish this was working out better

Damn, this sucks guys.

how do i check version again? good night i will set back up tomorrow

There's gotta be some way we can get 8 people on one IP address and race all at once.

anyone care to try 66.167.121.155 ?

/ j

no luck

as a test (test only) try me.... at either...

169.254.254.119

or

142.161.90.241

I had no problem connecting to the 142-address in derek's post. Everyone join!
