Well many of my friends and myself manage to play diablo over kali without any
timeout when only 2 players are in the game.

to have frequent timeouts.
Occasionnally it works fine, but most of the time, it's only playable between 2
players.

For info, we're also playing on a fast server and we have pings from 300 to 500.
