When u start a multiplayer game, you will always see your local IP-adress on the top of that blue screen, but if u want to play through IP, then u have to give your opponent your dynamic (internet-) ip. If you want to play against "your second computer", donīt play through IP, but through "direct connection".

If you want to check if someone is able to send datas to your computer (which is very important while playing that game through IP..), u can do this:

Your opponent should open "DOS prompt" (this black window where u can enter DOS stuff...) and type the following:

ping xx.xxx.xx.xxx (the x should stay for your current dynamic ip adress).

Now his comp will send 4 times datas and waits for your comp to response. If it fails, your comp is still blocked (by a firewall or by closed ports)
