PCMech Forums - View Single Post - Gameing with network won`t work. Winproxy 4.0 w/Netgear

I have two machines networked together with Netgear networking cards. Both machines are running win98se. I have installed Winproxy 4.0 and both machines do surf the net and do the e-mail thing. But the client machine will not join on-line servers. The game is Unreal Tournemant game of the year edition. I have been through the forum with the game ppls and they say it`s a problem with my computers they could not handle. Others with networks are able to join diffrent on-line servers at the same time. The client machine will count the on-line servers...but when done counting..just goes to zero servers. If I leave it hang in the chat room in the game...it will join after a long time. So I have had both machines in the live chat within the game at the same time.....and the first machine has no problems joining the games, but the second will not join any other game then one hosted by the first machine. I`m thinking it must be a port or something that needs to be tweaked or something with the Winproxy 4.0. Any body have anything to do with these stuff....or up for a challange??
