i cant connect to my brothers laptop for some reason. We had just descided to play online for the first time. so, i create a simple mission, and host it on hyper lobby, and my bro tries to join. Lockon starts, but it does not show my selected mission. instead, it shows a blank network mission editor screen(with the connect info on the side and what not.) no coalations screen, no mission shown, just a blank map. can any one help? The same thing happens to me if he hosts. everything works fine if we join a regular dedicated server.

 

any ideas? we would connect through direct IP, but I don't know my own IP address nor do i know my bros. do you know where/how we can find them?

Thanks for the IP thing though.

Dude...you HAVE to run EVERYTHING on ADMINISTRATOR. Even TeamSpeak if you want to be able to speak during a mission. This includes Hyperlobby. And when I say everything, I mean everything you want associated with LockOn online play. You will also have to unblock it from windows firewall if it prompts you to do so.

Ya, I made sure i unblocked it. I'm not running vista, my bro is. And everything is running as admin. he can connect to a server just fine. we just can't connect to eachother.

Im willing to bet Ice or Frostie would know more about this...now are you using a router to connect to each other?? Are you even in the same house? Fill in some details here.

OK, then I suggest to check out, if you are able to 'ping' the other's computer at all:

 

use "Start/execute/cmd"

 

and a comand line window will open (hope it does on Vista..)

then type "ipconfig" and enter

 

that should prompt your own ip, you bro has to do the same on his machine.

 

Next, try "ping XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX"

 

where you have to type in the IP as shown on your bro's computer

 

If your firewalls settings are OK, then both of you should be able to reach your computers vice versa.

 

I understood, that you are not using the same internet access point (router), e.g. in one house, don't you ?

kind regards,

no, same house, and connected thru same router. (regular, not wireless)Ironhand mentioned something about this, but he didn't say how to fix it.

 

we both have the same IP adress, is that a problem?

Thats the problem there...using the same router would connect you to almost virtually identical ip addresses. And yes it IS a big problem. Youll have to assign a new ip address for each computer...albeight slightly different. Think of it as ghey internet pr0n.

so how do i reassign a different IP adress to each computer? and would that screw up the network we have set up?

No it shouldnt...and its not for kids to be screwin with cuz its a whole new can of worms opened up. Youll have to get the ip address for your router and tweak with some other settings and a whole lot of other tinkering. Hell I might be able to do it from here but Im not exactly qualified on router configs.

Wait. so in other words, i cant change my IP? why? so, in short, we cannot play against eachother if one of us hosts... that stinks...

No you CAN just YOU shouldnt. Not a diss on you, but mom and dad would be somewhat cheesed if I managed to tell you to do something that shouldnt have been done. Lawsuits notwithstanding...your either better off trying to join on other servers and playing there, or letting dad fix it himself.

 

 

Not unless someone else here can confidently help you make the settings yourself.

Dont know if you can technically do that. It all goes through the same ISP. Id have to learn more about proxies before I give you a yes answer on that, cuz technically youll have a different ip for one router...but theyll be connected on the same network. If I had to pick, Id say yeah but its just cheaper if you can get someone to change ips on one computer rather than spending 100 or so on another router that you dont need.

Quick search on google provided this solution

 

"Well i was trying to figure out how to do that for Counter-Strike: Source. But I was able to figure out the problem. the router was giving both computers the same ip address. This kept both computers from connecting to the same game server. But the solution was to just use a Hub. that solved everything. So this one is closed. thanks though guys. "

No fuzz to mingle with internal IP's and router config, should work for you guys AFAIK....

 

Maybe, one of your friends can help you out with a hub for testing. Don't buy one yourself, do some testing before...

If you get the same IP you would have problems connecting on the internet, or anything for that matter as there is an ip-conflict on your network then. You are using the same gateway ip though, let me guess... 192.168.0.1 ?. Check your IP as showed before here and you should see that you have different ip's. try to send a ping to see if you can reach each other.

 

if you want to decide your IP your self, go in to the network settings , propertys, scroll down to the internet protocol (TCP/IP), double klick on that and you will be able to set the ip adress.Put for instance xxx.xxx.x.3 on one pc and .4 on the other.then you are sure that they will not have any ip-conflicts. If you want to go back, then just clik in "obtain ip-adress automaticly"

 

Easiest thing to get the new ip, is just to reboot when you have done the change. Then the ip will be set directly.
