LAN users connect to same online server?

My brother and i each have our own copies of the game, and when we first started playing we could both be playing on the same internet server at the same time through our LAN/router setup. now whenever one of us tries to connect to the server the other one is already on, we get a msg in game that says, "operation is taking longer that expected press esc to cancel" then "you cannot connect to this internet server blah blah blah" why is this happening now? we used to be able to play together, now we cant. is it a router setting? a game setting? server setting? (hope not) this happens on every server we both try to join. please can anyone shed some light here.....


thanks much

after that mine worked great
