Make sure you have your Firewall configured to allow incoming connections to UDP port flserver listens to (tipically 2302). Or if behind NAT make sure you have defined a port map for the flserver UDP listening port. You may manually set the port flserver listens to by adding /p<port_number> to your flserver.exe shortcut.

Make sure everyone has DirectX 9.0b
The game will run SP on DX8, but you will see exactly the problem you describe.

Sounds like a DirectPlay problem Ya upgrading DirectX took care of some of my connection issues as well.
