Begin Line Operation (Expert)

The expert mode for beginning New Line Operations allows you to have more control over your Line Operations session, i.e. playing on a LAN or over the Internet (WAN). Also note that when you use the Expert mode, other players can only connect to your sessionwhen they know your server details

From the Begin Expert tab, select Query IP Address.

Choose your IP address. If on a LAN, select your 192.168.X.X address. Use 127.0.0.1 if you want to connect two simulations on the same computer. You probably want to use a WAN address, which will allow other people to connect to you via the Internet. To do so, choose Detect to determine your WAN address.
