Do you use a software firewall? What brand? Have you made any changes to it?

Every time I enter LAN mode in Mario Kart, the GC is detected but I keep getting the configuration error. I've tried doing as much as I can from the Troubleshooting sticky.

go into the settings of your sygate firewall and disable driver level protection.

also make sure your not running ICS

Also, go into the settings of your sygate firewall and disable driver level detection.

It says Driver Level protection, I assume that's the one?

Wow, thanks DIE-HARD, that seems to have done the trick. It's configured successfully. Now for the hard work, finding someone to play near me who actually has a GC Smile

One last question: Should I turn driver level protection on when I'm not using kai?

naa it's not needed for the firewall to function.

If you hover the mouse over the checkbox on 'Driver Level Protection', it tells you what it does.
