I dont know if this is the right place to post, but I have never tried to play a multiplayer game, and I thought it could be fun to try...
But it seems I cant do that!!
Every damn time I log on to the valkyrienet, and finds a game... I press join!
But allways there seems to be a problem, as my computer says that the IP address doesnt excists!
Nobody wants to help there, so now I ask here...
How in hell am I supose to play a Multiplayer game, huh???
 
I seem to recall getting that message when the game versions do not add up. So check that your host is not running the beta, or is running the beta, and that it's the right beta, according to what you are running yourself.

Second, you may be having firewall issues. Try minimising CK and seeing if you have a Windows popup saying something like "This program is trying to connect to the Internet." If so, grant CK permission to do so.

Third, you can try what worked for me in Vicky : Don't join through Vnet, but instead write down the IP number, exit Vnet, and join by Internet. I have no idea why this should make a difference, but it does in Vicky anyway.

Hope you get things sorted out.
 
You can read the "What do you need to know to play EU MP" which applies to CK too. You can find the link in my sig. If reading that does not solve the problems, please send a PM to me :)
