'Now that you have a private server set up on Hamachi, the next step is to load the game that you plan to play. Whether it's Company of Heroes or Starcraft, you should select the proper multiplayer mode which will take you to online play.
Starcraft has several selections; you should select the one that includes UDP when using Hamachi, whereas other games simply require to use the LAN setting."

My way:


Look if you can PING your friend (right click on user -> ping)

Make sure he can PING you back ...



If you can do so, you can join your friend over LAN. Not all games support it!

Might have to turn firewall off if you are not able to ping each other or if you do not see the server!



Just google the game with hamachi behind it and (your version of the game) ... solutions will come how to make it work...  ;)

You need his external IP-address and port number.
He must allow connections through that port and if needed disable firewall.

Start hamachi... be sure your in the same server/room as your friend. Let either your friend or you find out its external IP (www.whatismyip.com (depends on who hosted the room..)) or cmd -> "ipconfig /all".

Start the game and connect through LAN. Hamachi creates a VLAN enviorment meaning you can connect through LAN.

If its not working your either blocked by a firewall or you did something wrong with hamachi.

I know that in CoD 4 Modern Warfare and CoD WaW AND Left 4 Dead, you must type into the Console (~ Button) connect <Host's Hamachi IP>

Do not attempt to connect to their Real IP, it wont work

In hamachi, next to their Nick, there will be there Hamachi IP :P
