Topic: Problem with generals

[golgotha]

Hey,

Can you please make a sticky on how to use direct connect in generals, pls? Me and my friend are trying to play the game but it always says connection timed out.

I am behind router SMC, he has the hub (dunno if it matters) and no firewall. Both of us are running win2k.

Could you pls tell me how to configure the router and the game to be able to play?
