  Hi,
  
  i've got a problem with the sw multiplayer. is it possible to play sw thru the internet behind a router. sw always tries to host a game with the lan-ip.

  mmulti: Peer-to-peer mode
  mmulti: Player 1 at 84.141.176.11:23513

  This is because most routers software always take from the top of the stack.
  You need to figure a way to call twice.
  
  The same thing happens when using RAS functions when calling the Windows API for a LocalIP, it takes from the top of the stack which is your NIC address.
  You need to loop it past this.
