Playing online from same router
-
Hi folks!
is it possible to fly online from two pc connected to the same router or network at home?
Thank you!
-
Yes
I had a friend here for 9 months, we even had another of our squad come down for a weekend, so that was three clients connecting to the server.
We don’t set any ports or run as DMZ.
The only servers we can’t connect more then one client to are those that set “dubious connections” in their config. (FO server)

Not sure about, but some providers (or the router itself) do not support loopback, in which case someone might be invisible by the others.
That was atleast a problem when I tried to fly with two friends (which are brothers, living in the same house). The latter one who joined was not visible by the first one or something like that.In that case you might want to try hamachi or wippien or some sort of vpn without encryption (or atleast without strong encryption).

I remember years back we would use Hamachi to set up a VPN then all players are in the same LAN.
