Unable to connect two computers

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know why suddenly I can no longer have two computers behind the same wi-fi connecting? Two gamers at home and until two days ago we were able to connect and play together on the Silent server.  Now if I connect, the other computer cannot connect. It just hangs saying Awaiting Connection.  If I disconnect, then the other one reboots, the second computer can connect, but I can no longer connect. It also hangs Awaiting Connection.  Tried so far to reinstall fresh.  No luck.

 

Any solutions?

 

Thanks!

Just making sure, but my impression is that the two ETs on the different computers have to be using different ports from each other.  That is probably what you did.

Yup. On one I just left it as the default 27960.  The other computer I tried changing it to any of the other ports, but none worked.  The one on 27960 continues to work, but if I try to change the port to something else, it doesn't work

That sounds exactly like my problem. Was fine until about 3 or 4 days ago
