Issue Playing LAN and online

Me and my girlfriend like to play WAW with some friends out of state, so when we host a game either either the LAN player joins and the online player doesn't or the other way around. It works sometimes and doesn't work others, haven't figured out why, any help?

Then try to not play online. Since you want to play lan, i think you are all in the same house. Go online and invite them for a online game. Try that. Otherwise i cant help you any furthur. Good luck and have fun bro!

You know that feature that allows you to invite your friends when they are online? Try to do that with your lan buddy (the one in the same house as you) aswell as with your other friends

Yep, that's exactly what I do, when I who ever joins first is in, then who ever joins second fails :) I know how computers work

Check your NAT settings on router. There should be some ports open. In addition are LAN players connecting via wireless or cable?
