Connecting two computers

[Raekur]

Additional information that may help us help you.

1. What operating system are you using?
2. What is the model and manufacturer of the router?
3. Have you assigned any port forwarding or filtering within the router?
4. Are you using Freelancer Account Manager?
5. Are there any error messages when 1 or both attempt to connect to a server?

Typically when one can connect and the other cant its due to both systems using the same Freelancer account. To verify this there is usually a message about the account currently being in use.

Freelancer does not require any port assignment to the client side at all unless you are running a server. Then there are certain ports that must be opened to allow connection to the global server and outside clients.
There is a readme file in the freelancer main directory, see section XII (not a lot there so dont get your hopes up).
