Has anyone been able to play an Internet multiplayer game of Homeworld 2? A friend and I have successfully played Homeworld 2 over a LAN, but when we attempt to play over the Internet, the "join" side always times out with the error message "Can't connect to host" and the "host" side just sits idle with no indication that anyone has attempted to connect.
We have also tried launching Internet games using GameRanger. This gives the same result ("join" side times out).
Both machines are PowerMac G4 1.42/DPs with direct (no firewall) broadband Internet connections. Other games such as Halo, Warcraft III, Age of Mythology, and many others work fine, so this looks like a Homeworld 2 issue to me.
