Quote:
The eth0 IP for the player is 192.168.1.2 and the eth0 DHCP is 255.255.255.255. The IP for my computer is 192.168.0.179 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Aha. That's the problem.

192.168.1.2 (player)
192.168.0.179 (computer)

The player and the PC are on two different subnets.

Change the player to 0 or the PC to 1, and they'll start talking.
