Community AdminI share a home router with 2 other DAI players and we've not had any issues playing together, so it is possible.
I'd guess there's a router setting that may be a factor. have you tried enabling UPnP?
Hey David,
It's possible but incredibly random and/or hit-and-miss. We've been trying to play with some friends for a while now. Each pair of players are on the same home network (ie. 2 are on one, the other 2 on another) and we've only been able to get all four of us in the same game lobby once. So yes, it can work, but it doesn't 90% of the time. We can get three of us into a lobby occasionally but then the fourth person is unable to join and gets the "You have lost your connection with the session" error.
Something is definitely broken somewhere and considering that we did get it to work once without any network changes suggests that it's not an issue with our home network setups.
