Ms Plus has dialup networking server built in. I have connected to a friends 2 
computer lan and been able to play hearts, share drives ext.

We tried diablo and were able to see the game inprogress but when i tried to 
join all computers lock. I wish this were possible, maybe it is i just don't 
know how to configure the computers.

If anyone has anyluck with this let me know.
