I've recsently bought a new computer and connected it with the old one through edimax 6204wg router (without wireless).
since then i've problems accessing online mp games.
can someone help me configure the thing to let me in?

Can you be more specific? DId you just get the router too? If so, perhaps you need to port forward to the game server. Also, many games won't let two players come from the same IP address, which both of those computers will appear to do.

Yes, i got the router with the new computer, and no, i don't intend to play a game from both computers.
probably it is a port forwarding issue, but i don't know how to do that, and if
it's possible with dinamic ip (i dont think my provider allows static ip)

Could you tell us the make and model of your router?

You don't need to worry about having a dynamic IP address for the router's external interface (facing the internet). With Port Forwarding you will simply have the ports used by the games forwarded to your computer's IP address on the network.

As in my fist post, it's the edimax 6204wg router.
i tried to define some kind of port forwarding, but it wo't let me to the internet until i removed it.

Take a look a www.portforward.com, they have instructions for port forwarding for many routers and games.
