ok, so i know there are a few threads going round with instructions on how to set up a network game, and i've read them but still no joy, so i'm going to tell you what i have done whilst trying to set it up, and maybe you can tell me of any mistakes we have made.

hosting:
- opened FM 2010, clicked preferences, network, typed name for the server along with password.
- ticked 'run as server' and force continue. and clicked confirm
-started a game with large database, English league from BSP upwards allowed.
- chosen manager profile and my team to manage, saved game.

trying to join:
- opened fm clicked join other server, join existing server, typed ip address of host (found in host's saved game under game status and also via RUN - cmd - ipconfig
- pressed join server and get 'unable to connect to server' everytime.
 
I was having the same problem. I think the problem was down to the patch. I had the 10.3.0 and he didnt. He then downloaded it and we are playing it now
 
got hamachi too, joined the same network on there, but don't know where to go from there other than what i already done!

explain?
 
yeah, comes up unable to connect, tried it loads

both download, join the created network, go on fm, type in the i.p address next to hosts name into the box, press join, unable to connect.. every timeee :(
