| Hello everybody. Google just sent me here and I have decided to register to help you out as I also had this problem and solved it. Hope it's not too late.
so, you get "communication established. Connecting to host" and it just sits like that. Here's what you have to do:
Firstly make sure you both have the same version installed/patched, say 2.2 for example. ok, of course you already knew that but the tricky part is the following:
Both you and your friend check the DungeonSiege2.exe size. The exe's have to be exactly the same in order for the game to work. Check to see if your exe is 18.1Mb and your buddy's exe isn't actually 6.14Mb (the 2.0 version's exe). Don't know why but DS2 sometimes keeps the old exe even after updating to 2.2...
Just send your 18.1Mb DungeonSiege2.exe to your friend and it will work.
Remember: the key is having exactly the same exe.
