Hey manu, long time no hear.

But listen...I installed new version and wanted to play a bit online. But my connection keeps dropping after 10-15 seconds non stop.

I tried playing against 4 different people, and everytime after or during a first poin, connection is lost.

Hello,

do you have 2 connections / IPs ? (for example, coz u use a VPN)
or an exotic router ?
If you still didn't do it, manually set the port forwarding, in case your router messes up when doing it automatically.

what do you mean 2 connections?

I have 2 laptops connected on same router...but last time I played (few months ago), I also had it like that, but It did not crash. (I did get a new router recently)

However, when I join somebody elses game...it works fine

I mean 2 Internet connections, both giving you 1 IP to connect to Internet. If you don't know what it is, then you likely don't have that... ;)

If you changed your router & can join without problem, it's very likely a problem forwarding your port, so look for your router doc and info on the Net about its possible issues.
