it's CE? I can't run CE for some reason, but make sure they dont have mods on theirs, and make sure your firewall isn't blocking anything, unblock the haloce, haloceded, gamespy arcade, etc. It might help out.

Guys! This isn't your IP for internet! This is your local area network IP. From what I know, I disabled all possible firewalls then it worked.
