4.Go to arena mode and create a private arena
5.In go to your options screen select that you want to host and setup max players as 2 (unless you enjoy lag), set Network traffic to light and leave monitors at 0.
5.Back in KAI kick people from your arena who have bad pings. if there ping is greather than 150ms you will have a crappy game. you want at least a 50ms ping or better
6.Have the client connect to his waiting for connection screen. (WFC for short)
