LAN Gaming

[Daniel2805]

I am trying to get games like Black ops and COD 5 to work with this but can't seem to set it up so that one of the computers hosts the server and the other can join. I can launch the games fine and have them both play the game in single player it's just when it comes to multiplayer everything I have tried has failed. I want me and a buddy to be able to play right next to each other so if anyone knows how to set it up then I would be very grateful.

this is too good to be true in LANs with my friends we usually dont have internet connection so this would rock if we get a non-chinese release

I had been playing around with some of this. The aster manual suggests creating a loopback protocol. I don't understand all this and I might have been doing it wrong, but when I follow their guide, I can play games over LAN without a problem. However, by doing so, my internet connection is wiped out. I need to disable the loopback adapter to use the internet again. Not sure if anyone else out there got this to work better, if so, please speak up.
