All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

dumb internet connection problem!

Post by Joey »

ok this is really pissing me off. me and my friend are trying to play quake, or quake 2 together. i have a cable so he is going to connect to me. i start up the game and set up the multiplayer thing and stuff. then i tell him to connect. i wont show up on his favorites list, or if he types in my ip, it says no response.

now my dad has this thing, zone alarm pro. the trial ended, but we didnt delete it yet. now hes trying another firewall thingy. i got out of it (exited the program) before we started playing. it still doesnt work. i dont get it. does anyone have a clue how to get him to connect to me?
