Team Viewer also leaves ports open while not in use. The only way to get passed it is to keep uninstalling after you use it. Not that great a program.

I always preferred gaming on private LAN networks, but didn't know about VPN options. I don't have as many friends that want to play multiplayer games these days, but I'll definitely give this a shot at some point. Cool piece of software.

It's not as easy to set up as this but they have more features. I want to recommend another program that can do this: Proxy Pro 6 from proxy networks.

There is no configuration required at all, just type in ID and password, thats all. It provides a Teamviewer generated IP for the VPN which is static. Here is the download link. http://www.teamviewer.com/download/TeamViewer_Setup.exe I tried out Teamviewer as it also has a VPN and is for free but I was just able to connect to one remote machine.

Fri, 01 Aug 2008 02:20:58 +0000 http://www.makeuseof.com/?p=4066#comment-340131 I would like to point out one quirk that might be encountered when trying to use Hamachi for gaming. For some games you may need to give the Hamachi connection the highest priority in order for it to work. To do this (in XP) go to Network Connections -> Advanced (Menu at the top) -> Advanced Settings, and then move Hamachi up to the top of the list. I know for a fact this is necessary in Warcraft III and possibly other games as well. I would like to point out one quirk that might be encountered when trying to use Hamachi for gaming.

If a handful of PCs are set up on a network using a switch, you have local access to all of their IP addresses and wouldn’t need it.</em>" I second Dave,

“why would you need to use Hamachi? If a handful of PCs are set up on a network using a switch, you have local access to all of their IP addresses and wouldn’t need it.“

I have installed Hamachi several times and in all cases it took several minutes for it to configure Network Connection. I think you should give it more time.
