1)Verify internet IP address. Use whatsmyip.org , or Start/Run and enter cmd then type ipconfig, or Control Panel/Network Connections and right click internet connection/status/support, or etc,etc.

2) Go to your KE Studio/WPP folder on your computer. (NOTE to be safe! - MAKE A BACKUP COPY of your original UserSettings file). Edit the last two lines in your UserSettings file by replacing both "0.0.0.0" with your internet IP address. Save the file. Start up the WPP game, go network play, blah, blah & BINGO - the WAR is now on!!!!!!

I didn't think I could do. But I think I solved it all by myself. Sorry for my big head, but I have been very upset for about a week with WPP MP not working. Still cannot believe I actually had to edit the WPP software to make it work. Thats a first for me!

Good to see you got it working. All I know is that I don't have to edit the UserSettings file to host or connect.

One thing I found odd about your Internet connection is that your IP changed quite a bit. Mine changes maybe once a year, if that. There still must be something going on that causes you to have to edit the UserSettings file to get MP to work.
