Something is wrong with your FDS setup,

In lan mode it doesn't try to contact external servers it just broadcasts to the network address.

thanks for the help but i figured it out, i had changed gametype in server.ini but not in gamespy.ini

i changed it in that as well and it worked.

thanks though
