RA2 uses the IPX/SPX protocol to network over a Local Area Network (LAN). Make sure this protocol is loaded on each machine in your network. To check if the protocol is loaded in Win95/98/ME, click on [Start], then "Settings", and "Control Panel". From the Control Panel, open the "Network" icon.

Check to see if IPX/SPX for your network card is listed anywhere in the Network Components. If not, click on [Add] , select "Protocol", then "Microsoft"-"IPX/SPX".

Once the protocol is loaded, launch the game on each machine and select "Network" from the main menu. You will be taken to a general game lobby where you can chat with the other machines on the LAN and create/join games.

Note: Windows NT/2000/XP may not be able to network with Win95/98/ME machines. This is due to an incompatible IPX/SPX protocol between the different operating systems. If you have an NT/2000/XP machine, you may want to try adding the NWLink IPX/SPX Compatible Transport to network with 95/98/ME machines.

Windows 2000/Windows XP Users: If you are using Win2k/Windows XP, you will need to make sure the IPX protocol has a generic IP address assigned to it: 00.00.00.00

Windows XP:

1) From the desktop Right click on “My Network Places” Icon.
2) From the dropdown select “properties”.
3) Right click on the Network card you would like to use under “LAN or High-Speed Internet”.
4) From the dropdown select “properties”.
5) Check to see if IPX/SPX for your network card is listed anywhere in the Network Components. If not, click on [Install] , select "Protocol", click “Add” then double click on "Microsoft"-"IPX/SPX".
6) Select IPX/SPX and click on “Properties”
7) Change “Frame type” to Ethernet II & click ok.
8) Select “Close” to now close the Local Area Connection Properties window.
9) Once the IPX/SPX protocol is loaded, launch the game on each machine and select "Network" from the main menu. You will be taken to a general game lobby where you can chat with the other machines on the LAN and create/join games.
