Hey Rick, so we've actually found that we need to make a dedicated server, and link it through the HTML5 networking plugin in UE4. HumbleNet is a cross-platform networking library that utilizes WebSockets and WebRTC to enable multiplayer gaming. It doesn't have integration with UE4, so for now we're setting up the aforementioned plugin. Will keep you posted!
