I'm having this problem connecting too. I do not get the unable to connect message but when the ip shows in recent servers I click on it and nothing happens.

Is this because I have the 11.1 update??
 
Hey All.

I am connected to Hamachi but when i click on a server in FM2011 (Join a Network), it just says "The connection to the server failed. Make sure your network or modem cable has not fallen out. Make sure the server you are trying to connect to is running a compatible version of the game. If you are joining an internet game make sure your connected to the internet."

My Wireless internet connection is fine, and the game versions are compatible. Please help!
Thanks

Hey Tiraths, great guide. Few problems;

My friend and I have started doing this, we have installed the same Hamachi, because we both did it at the same time. We have the same FM, we have checked. Both Hamachi's are working, and we have set the games as you say to set them up. We have both followed your letters to the order. And we have done things in the comments below, like making sure it is through firewall's etc.

1) Does the host have to be in a game for the other to join?
Just the manager creation?
The overview page after creating 1 manager?
Create another manager for the other to take over?
Or be on a specific screen in the game? (So from overview go to game info or whatever?)

2) Any tips on things to help us, that aren't already here? (Because we dont understand why it isnt working)

P.S. the picture in the guide that is missing, is it important?

Thanks in advance. Sharkster
