Warp Pipe

The Warp Pipe beta is out. Download it at the above link. You will find some information about Warp Pipe and links to their official documentation. Let's get started!

Step 1: Post your bandwidth and games.
Step 2: Get your Cube, PC and network setup to play online.
Step 3: Challenge your opponents!

Post your bandwidth and games
Go to Broadband Reports to take a bandwidth test, then report the results here.

For instance, my bandwidth on my cable connection is about 1900 kbps downstream / 361 kbps upstream. "Downstream" is your download speed, while "upstream" is your upload speed. This is useful in estimating how well Warp Pipe will work for your system.

As for LAN-enabled games, there are two at this point: Kirby's Air Ride and MK: DD. 1080 Snowboarding will hit soon. Post the games you have along with your bandwidth.

Network Setup
Check out this link to find out what network setups will work with Warp Pipe.

Getting Started
Check out this link to get started with Warp Pipe.

A Note on Routers
Remember, if you are behind a router you will probably have to forward port 4000 to the IP of your computer. This is the communications port Warp Pipe uses to talk to other Warp Pipe clients.

Challenge Your Opponents
For the current version of Warp Pipe, you will have to trade IP addresses. Since making your IP address publicly known isn't such a hot idea, please don't post them here. I suggest you trade IP addresses via IM/PM when you want to play against someone.

I'll be updating this post as more info is made available.
