TCP/IP through router?
A friend of mine and I are trying to do a multiplayer TCP/IP game but, when I try to connect to his computer to play, I can't find it. I also can not ping it.
I am behind both a firewall and a router and he has a firewall up to so, we dropped the FWs and tried again but still..nothing.
My question is, why can I go out onto the internet but, I can't seem to find his computer at all? Do I have to do something special?
Also, the IP address the router gives my computer is not the real IP addy which is assigned to the router..how would I go about getting THAT IP number?
