We are having problems setting up a network that will allow onling gaming with links2003. Included is all of the information regarding our network. Would anyone, someone, everyone, LOL!!. please see what in the world we are doing wrong. We have toyed with the ports, reset the router, you name it, we have done it. Please take a look, feedback would be much appreciated

There is certainly a lot of data in there.

Have you looked at Links 2003: Known Multiplayer Issues? I think you will find your solution in that article.

From the data you posted I'm guessing you have a router/switch running a local network so basically your problems have to do with the way the router works to allow more than one PC to share a network connection.

And lots of folks get spooked by messages like 6/5/2004 6:46 PM Dhcp The IP address lease 192.168.1.101 for the Network Card with network address 00036D1C57E1 has been
denied by the DHCP server 192.168.1.1 (The DHCP Server sent a DHCPNACK message).
but you shouldn't worry. It's the normal way DNCP goes about assigning addresses. The PC asks but in a fashion that DHCP will reject and they then enter into a dialog that should result in the PC getting the proper values assigned.
