Trying to join friend's private match on same network, connection always times out
-
The Title. My brother and I live in the same house and wanted to play multiplayer together, since we missed the golden age of COD. I can double-click his username on the friends list, and then the screen will turn black, say "awaiting connection" and start counting up to 11 before it boots me and says connection timed out. Is there any way to get it to work without port forwarding? Because I would be a real chore with how my router is set up. UPnP is enabled and everything else is perfectly set except for the ports. I'm not sure if our ports have been forwarded.

Use the connect command in combination with the host's internal IP.
