    I can't remember, but it should support LAN gaming. There should be a tab somewhere in there for that...haven't played that game in a LONG time so i forget...

    Is it just a straight cat5 patch cable? If it goes through the network ports, then you will be using TCPIP for sure, regardless of whether a hub is used or not. Try the TCPIP setting. I had trouble with TA on Win XP and ultimately play it on my 2 win 2k boxes. Even then, I had some issues where they wouldn't properly connect 50% of the time via tcpip. I ended up using IPX which made a dramatic improvement.

    Good luck!
