Actually you can do this with a Linksys Router..  I know because I have
17 people at my appartment in the same Quake 3 server using my Linksys
Router...  Create a .bat file to execute the game.  In the bat file
include a differn't net port for each computer..  Hence each computer
must go through a differnt net port while starting up the game..  Put
this batch file in your QuakeIIIArena Directory.

The only line needed in the batch file is...:  (Copied out of mine)

quake3.exe +set net_port 27660 +set sv_pure 0

Dont forget!!!  Make a bat file for every PC that you wish to connect
with, and give it a unique net port.  example-  27660, 27661, 27662 so
on so forth..   Works for me!!  Our clan does it every day..

Hope this helps.
