IPX gaming?
I wanna play via ipx protocol (Red Alert 2) and installed the IPX protocol then the option to play a network game was enabled but I was not able to find someone's game and others in the lan weren't too.

Do they have IPX/SPX installed?
If you are running windows 95/98/whatever, just make sure each machine has IPX instaled. Some hubs (like that Linksys BEFSRxxx DSL/cable modem +switch) DO NOT support IPX, so make sure your hubs and switches are cool....
to brian frank: the computers I am talking about are all in my room and have all ipx installed
and to dasshutzenfest:
"If you are running windows 95/98/whatever" ....you read the section we are in?

and my computers are connected via bnc cables

Dude, I asked what hubs and/or switches you are using. Find them, find out if they can run IPX, if so- find out if they are running IPX.
