System Shock 2 Headaches

Howdy!
Since this game doesn't have IPX support, TCP is needed. My friend and I have tried various configurations stated for other games in this forum, but none have worked. Though the connection status states we are connected, I cannot ping his IP. He is behind a firewall (university, he has no access for forwarding, etc.) and I am using the DMZ option on my router so there should be no problem with ports on my end. Any help that would shed some light and possibly make the connection possible would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Lochmacher
