Yeah, I just played an online game, but I really have to check my firewall setups too - the lag was pretty horrible without gates opened specifically. It runs as-is, but only if you like walking through molasses. Oh, and don't start rotating the map, with severe lag either. That'll take a while to finish. :grin:

If you don't have the port settings right then more likely it will change to proxy. Did you check in the game connection settings whether you were. If you are lagging the more likely reason is you haven't got enough upload bandwidth. For a 5v5 I believe the game needs 330Kb/s which is quite a lot!
