When testing out my game i try to log in as a two different people at once, so i can test it better. Well, when i try to log in as the second person i can't connect to the game. It tells me that the connection failed. I believe that other people can't log in either. My clock is right, and my pager is working. What could be the problem?

Hmm.. I get that lots, but it shouldn't happen on your game without any code to block those people.

Your modem speed has nothing to do with it. ICS is basically a proxy server and prevents hosting BYOND games.

well, that may be the problem. I was on a network before, but i just got a new one recently. If so, i think that's a little inconvienent (not complaining!). Becuase my sister is always on the main internet computer it may be a hassle. But i may be able to pencil in some time...
