| 169821 | 2003-08-23 05:42:00 | Hi All Is there a way to create a network using modems. What I me is me and a friend want to play tcp/ip games using our modems. the Game is Diablo 2, and we don't want to play using Battle net as we get disconnected to often. The game doesn't allow for straight modem to modem gaming, and it is a hassle for him to bring his computer to my place to play over a normal LAN. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to try anything (within reason of course). Cheers |

Im sure you can set the modem to "listen" somehow... I cant remember at all how we did it, I think we used some other application.. but we did do it! |
