HELP NEEDED fast! Problems with LAN game, "No response from host"

[Tomisama]

No I am not sure about required use of the disc in LAN games Ktadie, you may very well be right there.

Though it is against my basic instincts to think that TW's manufactures would not require everyone wanting to play to purchase their own game, but could be wrong!

Just doing the best I can with some similar (other TW games) direct experience, and some remembered posted rumor (what can be remembered of both that is ).

Reviewing everything: If it is possible to use one game for a LAN hookup, and you can see and chat, then the problem is in hosting it’s self.

Can you host and join games on line with either computer, with other players?

I've played on my two computers via LAN. You must start the game on one computer, put your name in the LAN connection and enter the lobby. Then take the disc, load the game on computer #2 and join a LAN game. Do not go online with your gamespy id. Just type any name in the lan connection.
We've played games without a hitch. Now my question is this:

Can you see the other computer when you view "My network"?

You must have a home network setup. I'm not familiar with Vista. I have XP Pro and it works fine. But from your screenshots, it says you have a "limited connection" in your Broadcom netlink. It also states that it is an "unidentified network". You need to set up a home network first. What type of router are you using? Try sharing a folder between computers. Once you have a legitimate home network up and running Med II will work fine.
