Connection Failed

[petufo]

Hello !
My English isn't good so sorry for it

We (I and my friend) want test playing on net.
We have same version (1.08 - czech texts....)
but I created a host so my friend couldn't connect... (he was wrote my IP - i test it on whatsismyip.com) it wrote some like "IP not found" or something similar...
ok
he did it same... i wrote his IP (from whatismyip.com) and it again wrote "IP not found"
we tested use channel on valkyrienet... again it wrote "IP not found"...
Can you help us ? What we can do ?

Make sure that you don't have any routers and/or firewalls acting up.

not wrong, but you should both try turning it off to see if it helps.

You're not on a home network?

Windows firewall is probably the most evil one of them all. Try either Sygate or Zonealarm instead, both which are free firewalls - and both which doesn't prevent EU2 MP from working.

yep, Sygate Personal Firewall works like a charm ... try that one.. Zonealarm is a little more tedious...
