    Internet/PC ips are split in "classes", a kind of internet hirarchy.
    the IP shows the class:

    the IP is split in "network number" (left side) and "host number" (right sides)

    Class-A 103.xxx.xxx.xxx 128 networks (one number) , 16 million hosts (three numbers)
    Class-B 151.170.xxx.xxx 16.000 networks (two) , 65.000 hosts (two)
    Class-C 196.23.155.xxx 2 million networks (three) , 254 hosts (one)

    class a for example is the american military network. (top secret)
    class b for example is for firms, universities and large networks. (internet)
    class c is for small internal networks (local area network = LAN).

    open an internet game and no lan game. (when you play trough the internet)
    check internet and ip settings.

    now do you play trough the internet or in a small lan?
    simply check the ip of your server, if it starts with 192....

    Great job telling him useless information, Ollj.

    nukeaqua, edit your listenserver.cfg in your \ns directory. Change the line "sv_lan 1" to "sv_lan 0". For some reason, the default listenserver.cfg (the config file which is run when making a listen server) has sv_lan 1 in it, which means that even if you make an "Internet Game" from the Multiplayer menu, you are actually making a LAN game.
