    If he's hosting the game, it's most likely a blocked port on his router. Make sure he has the correct ports forwarded on his router. I've had the same issues with games over the years; if it's really a pain in the ***, just have him go straight from his cable/dsl modem to his computer. Sometimes routers are just stubborn and you have to go around them.
