Two clients with NAT?

[Rival]

I have a wireless router performing a NAT/DHCP for my internal network. I only have one public address provided by my ISP. I have installed EU on my son's computer, but I seem to have run into a snag. Absolutely everything works normally, unless we both try and play EU simultaneously. When the second computer logs in, EU boots the first one. For some reason I can only have one of us logged in at any given time. We each have our own accounts of course, and would enjoy being able to play together. Anyone know why I can't get two computers to play EU simultaniously? What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

That's weird. Must be some crappy router. EU uses however the same destionation port for any client, the problem could lie in that.

I had no problem with Windows ICS sharing an internet connection for two EU clients. Maybe disabling uPnP might work. Are they somehow getting the same internal IP, or do you have some weird firewall software?

Using a lynksys wireless with DD-WRT v23. I turned ON the uPnP and now it works fine. Go figure. Thanks, all!

Turn that PnP stuff off when you're done playing. It's one of the worst ideas ever from a network security standpoint!

Great!

Glad that brand is not too popular here, we prefer ASUS instead. It's weird that you say you need uPnP ON... tells just how weird the firmware from the router is.

What AlphaGeek said, especially if you allow anyone to see or connect to your wireless network.
