What makes this particularly frustrating is that occassionally the client has connected, and players have been able to complete a few turns before things ground to a halt.

Almost sounds like you have something trying to use the same port...Or are experiencing network issues. What port are you using? Are you using multiple computers connecting to the same router? Can you check router stats to see if you are getting errors, dropped packets, etc...

Now I do have a firewall, which is part of my internet router and I'm able to control port forwarding on it to allow connections to games I'm hosting. I don't have firewall software running on my PCs, and the Windows XP firewall is turned off.

You sure?

Anyway, firewalls don't in general block the Dom2 client, do they?

A firewall wouldn't be much good if it didn't... :-)
