Here's a question for the networking gurus out there:
I'd like to play via the internet.
I have a cable-modem & a router/firewall. My IP address
is (relatively) static. My friend is using a regula 56K modem.
1) will Xconq be fast enough over a 56K modem?
2) how do we find each other? Should I host the game, and
then he connect to me, or the other way around? Or is
this even possible?
I know just enough of this network stuff to be dangerous...
Thanks!
Erik
