Cannot conect in multiplayer

Asked by yfm

Tried to use multiplayer: 2 PCs, Win7 64 bit and Win7 32 bit, running Wargus 2.2.7 64 bit and 32 bit respectively. One player creates the game, the second one chooses "Join Game" from the "Multiplyer" menu and types the creator's IP in the dialog box. But it wouldn't connect. The creator doesn't notice any activity (just keeps waiting and nothing happens), the second player gets the "cannot reach server" message. What could be the problem? How can we fix that and play via internet?

Check your security and firewall settings on both computers. Badly configured firewall can block network communication.

Can you help with this problem?
