[QUOTE="bmac89, post: 1608544, member: 104075"] Hello, I realise LAN is local area network however I am trying to setup a multiplayer LAN game over the internet and have heard of people doing this before using software such as Hamachi - but it is not working for me. I have tried using Hamachi on the 2 computers to create and join a network. Hamachi gives a 25.X.X.X.X IP address. However when loading the game it says no multiplayer sessions can be found. Do I need to configure the hamachi connection in System Preferences > Networks ? If so, how? My understanding was that Hamachi did not require any additional configuring? How about any other alternatives to get a 'virtual lan' for multiplayer games over the internet? I notice Mac has a VLan option in System Preferences but I have no idea if this would work for this or how I would even set it up? The games are: * Lord of the Rings - War in the North which only has LAN and no online feature. * Grid 1 (Car Racing) - LAN & Online with GameRanger - which is not compatible with OSX Mavericks. Any help at all would be much appreciated even if you are not familiar with this software. Thanks. P.S. I have done a lot of google searching but everything relates to windows, not mac. [/QUOTE]
