What should the .AdapterName be in the DangerousWaters.ini file? Couse rightnow i have it to .AdapterName "Broadcom Ethernet Adapter". Maibe it should be somthing else?

That was one of the main points of the FAQ.

If you're not getting a connection with one adapter, try switching to another one listed in adapters.txt. You might get success with the LAN/router adapter, or for that matter, with something associated with Hamachi since you're running that.

Dangerous Waters has no way to choose the correct ip interface for multiplayer in case your computer has multiple ip interfaces.
By using Hamachi you add a new interface, and DW gets confused. So besides opening the correct ports (and disabling the firewall for those ports) you have to specify manually in the Adapters.txt file the correct interface.

have you tried not using Hamachi?

Has the person you're connecting to done this before, successfully, with his/her current configuration? It's not necessarily on your end if you've tried everything.

Well no, neither my fried, or even my second laptop that is connected to the same modem ever made it to work. Trying without hamachi.... I will try it.
