Red Alert 2 having problems getting two computers to play on LAN

[ahsia]

Two machines, one Windows 98SE, one Windows XP. Both have Red Alert 2, trying to play over LAN. Both machines have IPX/SPX protocol installed. Both machines can join game, but after 10 seconds, players are dropped. Why is that happening? Could it be the XP machine? Are the right protocols installed? Help!!
