My work buddies and I have been trying to play direct connect games, unfortunately two of us are behind the same netgear router.. ONE of the two can join, but the other gets the unable to connect bug, and everyone who tries to join after that does too.

I've searche and found responses about this but no one from Relic/Relicnews mentioning if its being fixed or not..

The reason I'm posting is, C&C Generals had this same problem, and it NEVER got fixed. Which is irritating because its such a great game.

Yes, I'm aware we can just use gamespy, but unblocking the gamespy ports is impossible for one of us. Long story involving a home bussiness.

Maybe with a patch.

Play through gamespy as you don't, shouldn't, need to forward any ports. Gamespy has NAT negotiation, so you should be able to use it.
