So i'm in my roommates group, and I can join the first game fine with them.. If I try and join another though it'll kick me and say I disconnected from the game.. The map wont go to the loading screen either.

My hardware is plenty powerful to run the game.. Any ideas?

Both computers are behind the same router I'm guessing?

This game has a problem with running multiple clients from the same IP address.

Reporting it to the support E-mail address will make sure that somebody at PGI knows about your problem.

Hmm I can't think of any reason that this would be happening from a server software point of view but I'll ping around to see if anyone has any ideas. Especially since since you say the first game doesn't have issues.

I do highly suspect the router being a cause though since I've personally had to keep swapping wifi routers many times over the years at home to get around various hiccups that crop up over time. Seems problem free with the latest one (knock on wood)

At the office we play MWO through a single external IP to the production system all the time with way more than 2 computers... so I think it's low probability of the mwo client or server systems having blame in this case.

We need to get you and other support people in touch with the multiple players having problems playing the game with multiple computers behind a router. There are already several other threads about this. Need to find some generic router settings that work for all.

i am sure routers have their own tech support
