C&C Remastered Major Lan Mode Bug

Product: Command & Conquer Remastered
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug Lan Mode: player slot occupied by two players at one time.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? try hosting on lan mode on one PC and connecting via lan join lobby from a another PC. Physical local Lan network Not VPN
What happens when the bug occurs? The game's seems to think both the host and the joining player are both "player1" and therefore occupy the same player slot. The host can't start the round. The joining player can't click ready. Any change to side, color, or team will affect both host and joining player. If joining player leaves lobby, all players including the host himself get kicked from the server"by the host".
What do you expect to see? I expect to see normal Lan mode lobby function of host is "player1", joining player is "player2" and the round can actually be started and played.

‌

Has anyone had any success with the new LAN patch? (I mean Lan as in 2 or more people on the same local network not vpn.) I tried Lan with a buddy of mine and we came around a "bug" which caused the joining player to take the same player slot as the host. The Lan round can't be started because the "host start button" is grayed out until all joining players click "ready", but the joining player can't click "ready" because that button is greyed out for him as well. Any change of side, color, or team with affect both players selections to be identical. If the joining player leaves the lan lobby, everyone including the host will be kicked to the main menu "by the host".

    @Noddynod443 hey buddy, just wanted to know.. if you are using the same account on both system (PC1 & PC2). because, apart from that, i dont see any other way, it can happen.

    Also, did you directly connect PC1 to PC2 via Lan Cable? or Did you use a router as Gateway (PC1 to Router port 1 & PC2 to Router Port 2)??

    it would be great if you could share a video, so the EA Developer can actually understand and fix the issue.

    Never mind, it works now. From the hosts screen player 2 from PC2's player name is <blank> and on the joining players screen the host name is exactly the same as the joining players name, but they are now in their separate player slots and the round can be started! So I don't know what exactly happen, but it works now!
