A friend of mine and I have tried to play D3 via tcp/ip and can't seem to get anywhere. We type in an address and nothing happens...no games appear to join in on. We have even tried connecting to each other w/o success. We are both using cable broadband (Cox ISP) on WinXP computers. He is using XP's firewall and I am using Symantec software, but tinkering with and/or disabling the firewall doesn't seem to make any difference. I have even tried putting his IP address in as an allowed computer w/o luck. We're stymied. Any suggestions as to what to try next? Sminky
