hmmh, is you're on a lan yer PC has two IP's methinks, internal and external, I do not know if BG can be adressed from both, since the server is then set up to accept commands from both the external IP (you got from yer ISP) and yer internal IP (the one you have assigned to yerself or the DHCP server has assigned to you inside the network)

network IP's are mostly 192.168.x.y

so what you need to do is have one client try and connect on yer lan IP and the other on yer external IP, I do not know if that'll work, but it's the only thing that comes to mind.
