![[image loading]](http://cdn.garenanow.com/webupdate/live/homepage/index/garenaplus.jpg) then log in click the LAN then something like this will pop up ![[image loading]](http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/9207/screenrm.jpg) Press game select Starcraft search for your starcraft.exe file join lobby then a room finally click Start then head to this ![[image loading]](http://www.mmogrindhouse.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/scp7yz31-300x225.jpg) Notes. NO CD-KEY!!!!!!!!!!!! Since no launcher is used there may be hackers but all games are non-ladder Lobbies allow you to chat since LAN has no channels. | ||

Has anyone troubleshooted with Garena before? Last night I tried to play with 4 other friends 1 in one house and 3 in another and then myself. Everything was working relatively fine (except my one friend caused huge lags when last year it was not a problem- independent problem that I'm not sure the solution.) Anyways, we started a game, the laggy friend quit so then we knew it was him, but then before we going to restart, the drop menu popped up and we all mutually dropped out of the game. We tried restarting, but at this point when we tried to tunnel, it said "cannot find user to tunnel" or something like that. And that message persisted even with exiting Garena and logging back in, restarting our computers and logging back in, trying different lobbies. After the first game and drop out crash, we just could not join again. No matter who hosted, no-one could see each others hosted game except for if one of the guys at the house of 3 because of course they are already on a LAN network. I've never had this problem before and while the Garena forums seem to indicate this is a problem experienced by several people going back to 2010, I've seen no solution beyond "reinstall Garena" "I already did that" "reinstall Garena" "I did that 3 times and it still doesn't work" etc. | ||

It's like hamachi where people from on other networks can play under LAN UDP network whereas ICCup server you play under a server and just have LAN latency enabled. Correct me if I'm wrong XD | ||

Maybe I'll have to try it out again. I don't like switching clients on my friends every other time we play so I had tried testing out several so that there is one simple method to set up, but then this happened  And yeah, Garena basically creates a virtual lan. I used to use Hamachi with my friends (because I didn't want to have to explain how to port forward and we typically have more than one person per house wanting to join anyways.) It's not a server like iCCup or Fish. | ||

I'll check out tunngle again, but I hope I don't need to go to Boola Boo Ball after... btw people with Tunngle, have the people you have joining just had windows 7, or do you have all manner of OS joining? We didn't have it this time, but there is one computer old enough that couldn't install Garena. Hamachi was rather simple that way. | ||

It's not a server like iCCup or Fish. i experienced something similar when playing dota year ago. 2 computers in the same house. 1 hosting the game and the other could not see the game/join/tunnel. if i recall correctly, you have to use different port numbers so that computers with same ip can join same game. | ||
