starting to look like we will need to use Game Ranger should THQ not fix the lobby issues.

GR has supported JO/JO:E since 2012. I posted about it over at DFR and the thread turned into a complete disaster since there were some people using a different lan client and were charging $$ to use it.
GR also supports:
DF
DF2
DFLW
DFTFD
DFBHD and TS
i did not see DFX or DFX2 listed anywhere, but im sure they could be requested.
