Default Angelox's Minilogin Classic Server, and 2 IP's behind router.

Here's the deal, me and my little brother are behind the same router, and I can't zone without disconnecting my little brother. Is there any way to get past this? Can I use a proxy?

Thanks in advance,
Mahoney

I can't seem to find an edit button, sorry, but I was in a rush when I made this post. I will go into it with more detail now.

I am trying to play on Angelox's Minilogin Classic Server, which plays fine until my little brother plays with me. This is the only way he can get in with me: I go in the game fully (in-game, freeport), then he logs in and gets in game. Then, the problem is, if I zone, my little brother gets disconnected, and after I zone, I change into his character. I am thinking this will be fixed if I try to log in with a proxy, and I am willing to lose my character just to be able to play with my little brother smoothly. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,
Mahoney

Are you sure they both have different IP's ? That is exactly what happens when you 2-box using MiniLogin with one IP, and I think some NAT'd setups do the same thing.

Ah, just whatismyip.com'd it, we both have the same ip address according to that site. Is there any way to get past that?

I understand all works well, so long you don't zone - when you zone, you have to register, the name of whoever is zoning before, that sets the database to match the name of the zoner.
Example; charactera loggin in, you set ip to his name at the web log in - then characterb was set and he logged in. So for the effects, the log in thinks only characterb (last one in) is there, and won't see the mistake tell you zone (it crashes).
Try zoning last character that used the web/ipfix then set the ip to the first one before you zone.
We just use that site for working on new stuff, but will keep your characters if you or anyone else is playing. Qadar uses two characters all the time from outside my LAN so you can also ask him, he knows more about it.
But just so you know, game play will be as was in classic, and zones past Kunark are closed.
