Read the guide more carefully, says to make sure you're playing on the PC before attempting this - otherwise we'll just ignore you.

Check the Disclaimer in it.

What game were you testing with? Sure people were hosting and had the game ready for you to join?

i am testing it with halo 2 and ya im sure the games were joinable because i would first try to join the game via pc which was succesfull and then i would then try to join the same game over xbmc and it would not show up, ive tried joining the ones with houses beside them but still didnt work

p.s. sorry about the double post

Do people see your ping when using the PC? Ask them if you don't mind. Also try your luck with turning PAT on / off.

Best thing to do is this: Run Kai in engine mode, run XBMC - let it attach. Go to H2, join an arena, launch H2. Go system link and leave it there (according to you, nothing shows up now). Now on the PC go run KaiUI.exe and look in Diagnostics Mode for both network reachable and console detected.
