Unleash7 - Everything PC... Made Simple!

Hamachi is one of the most diverse programs that let you create servers and play your pc games over LAN with your friends. A lot of people don't know how to configure hamachi properly. I will show you how to set it up.

First of all, download and install Hamachi (Not the latest version, you need hamachi 1.0.3.0)

Configuring Hamachi Adapter

1. Click Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet, Network and Sharing Center
2. Click on Change Adapter Settings
3. In the menu, Click on Advanced then Advanced Settings on the top (If you don't see it, press ALT and the bar will show up)
4. In the list, you will see all of your connections. Using the Up and Down Arrows, put Hamachi to the top of the list and click OK
5. Now after clicking OK, you will still be in the Change Adapter Settings menu which shows all of your connections
6. Right-Click Hamachi Network Adapter, and hit Properties
7. In Networking tab, the only things that need to be Unchecked are QoS Packet Scheduler and Internet Protocol Version 6
8. After unchecking, click on Internet Protocol Version 4 and hit Properties on the bottom
9. In General, everything here needs to be set to automatic
10. Click on Advanced in the General tab
11. In IP Settings tab, uncheck Automatic Metric
12. In Interface Metric, set it to 5

Opening Ports (Routers Only)

1. In the Hamachi menu (where you see the power button), click on the icon that looks like a gear, then hit Preferences
2. In Status, click on Detailed Configuration
3. In the Connecting through NAT Menu, check TCP and UDP ports
4. In the box next to UDP and TCP, assign the SAME port number for each of them, ranging from 40000 to 50000 (For example, my TCP port was 47000 and my UDP port was 470000 as well, BOTH OF THEM HAVE TO HAVE THE SAME PORT
5. Click OK and open your web browser
6. In the Address bar, type either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 to gain access to your router or modem settings
7. Because each router company have different ways to open ports, go on PortForward.com and search for your router in the list
8. Search for Hamachi, and it will show you how to open ports for hamachi using the port you've chosen earlier.

*Make sure that firewall is disabled when trying to play LAN

Cheers!
