Hi erb - you should be able to play all 5 of the online games with your pc/dc server. I basically went thru the same thing several months back when i set mine up. Read the guide here on the site about setting up your server it will tell you everything that you need to do to get all games working. For 4x4 evo you have to open ports on your router to get it to work properly. and with my experience with max pool, it doesnt dial immediately - it takes about 10 seconds for the dc to dial out after you hit connect. AS far as starlancer, i really dont think there is anything special that you have to do, but ive only played that game like twice in the time that ive owned it - just really not my thing Confused
Just keep trying - you'll get it working
