First of all, can the game run on your computer?

Yes that is the first and most important thing, if you game can run on your computer then it is fine.

The reason your bro can't play it is because you need to do Port Forwarding on your Router (the internet box). Try searching for it on the forums, (not in the scripts forum though, i believe it is found in the FPSC Product Chat).

It also depends if you are on an LAN network or a WAN network. If it is LAN, make sure that you have the proper default gateway. If it is WAN, make sure you have the proper subnet mask. If your internet works, you don't need to do this. Foreward the ports on your router, and make sure that your firewall is not blocking it. Also, computer compatability is key. Another thing that I find is to make all of the transferred game files to READ ONLY. Hope this helps.

Some ISP-provided routers don't let you do that, it voids the ULA with your ISP.

Well, no real techie would be using an ISP provided router... especially one that won't let you play your badly needed games online.

I use a Belkin now. My FiOs was not 802.11n, so I needed to upgrade to my own router.
