hi I`m having trouble connecting to ppl when I host a game, it just keeps saying couldn`t connect to other players. I can connect to others ok when I join there games. and I know your probs thinking well just join theres then, but I have some maps I want to play with a friend and I cant give him them because we don`t connect. funny thing is 2 days ago I was hosting a game and was able to transfer maps etc, then it just stoped working again??? is it a problem at my end or is it the server? It also shows my friends as offline when in fact there online I see there names up in the 2v2 room in blue but on the communicator it says there offline?

If you can connect to another player, you should be able to transfer a map. If you cannot connect to them, then you will not be able to. I think it's a connection problem you're having and not the map transfer. Please could you look at improving the quality of your connection.

Try these things, remove Hamachi drivers, check that the IP address in Options->network is one on your network. If there is more than one, try the other one. Then try to connect with a cable rather than wireless and keep the telephone leads going into your modem (if any) away from mains electrical leads.

yes I can connect to other players, when I join there games. when they join me we get the unable to connect, I use virgin media and have run a ping test and get a A rating, I play world of tanks and quite a few other games and have no issues whats so ever, I also have a direct cable from my modem. and I have no Hamachi drivers either. I just cant understand why it allowed me to host a game and transfer maps. then the next day I couldn't`t host them successfully again and still cant.
