Hi!
How many ppl can connect on the same server with the same IP?
Ich will play on a Server with my sister and Brother. We are 3 ppl, when 2 connected there are no probs, but the 3rd ppl cant connect. Why? Sad

2 ppl on the same server and the 3rd one of another server is no prob.

Without knowing any details I would say that there isn't a practical limit to how many clients with the same IP that can connect to the same server.
I just tested my own server and could easily connect 3 times from same IP. The problem might in your own network setup.

Have you tried different combinations of players to make sure this is in fact a possible limit and your brother's PC isn't causing the problem? (e.g. you + your sis, you + your bro, your sis + your bro)

Dragon, please ensure that everyone of you have the unique CDKEY. Because GUID is based on IP and CDKEY. Use a generator Big grin

hmmm... but i dont understand, why can 2 ppl on the same server and the 3rd one on other server the same time playing?
The ping is great when all 3 ppl played.

my sister and brother,
my brother and i
and my sister and i, can play on the same server.

yes, i have a router and i have forward the ports.
hmmm....i think i must test this shit on a german server.

when i start a LAN server, than we can all connect.

but its not really important, my brother play quake for 3-4 days, and he sucks at the moment :twisted:

the prob is, i dont undertsand, why? Thinking: Evil

@edit:
yes, i have dsl 1024/128 FastPath Cool
