Connection to EA timed out when trying to play with 2 different PC and accounts

[BL00DY-T]

Hi community!

I just had my son install BF5 on a new PC a got him. I used to play with him from a laptop connected on wi-fi and everything worked fine. Now I installed the game on his new PC with his own account. Everytime we try to play together now it says Server Disconnected, Connection to EA timed out. Anyone has an idea?

I opened the dos windows and did /release and /renew and it fixed my problem

Hey @Shanep1278  @BL00DY-T  you need to make sure that both PC have different IP in order to play - you can set up a static connection to both PC to get a different IP. If you are not sure how to do this I recommend poking your ISP.
