Question
TCP/IP Diablo II Help

What I simply want to do is to play Diablo II with my two computers, through TCP/IP. I can remember doing this before, but I can't seem to get it right this time. Let me explain my connections... The cable modem is connected to a Linksys Route (model number: BEFSR41). Then I have a Cat-5 running to computer one and another to computer two. Seems fairly simple to me, but the game won't connect. Any ideas?


Thanks in advance.

Do you have any software firewalls running on the computers?

Are you trying to connect to another computer on another network or your own?

I believe there is a firewall on one of the computers. And I'm trying to connect to another computer on my own network.
