If you want to play online from both computers, you'll have to have a unique cd key for both.

And I suspect nobody here will give away a cd key; the game's only $40, go buy it like the rest of us did.

Are you responding to me or the guy that just wants one of us to dish out a cd key? I totally understand getting the game for a different household but if I have two computers I don't think it's right to have buy two copies so me and my boy can play. That's why I was inquiring about the router. If the servers validate by IP address then it should work, but if it validates with a MAC address then it won't. I thought it was the latter.

Oh yeah. Walmart has the game for $24.95 (cd version).

I was responding to you first, him second. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm not sure how the master server validates cd keys; one would think the mac address would be the smartest option, but who knows?

Yeah and I don't want to find out hard way either. If I have to I'll buy another copy but if someone can verify that it works through a router, then obviously I won't. Wrong or not. We don't play that much anyways.

If you don't play all that much you can both play on the same machine, that's not illegal.

it works. I have two computers behind one router, and me and my bro both love ut2k4, so we installedu ut2004 installed on the comps. we've both been playing ut2k4 ever since it came out, and my cd-key is still a-ok.
