does Battlelan allow me hosting a game on battle.net and let my friend connect thru lan?
nope, you cannot use batle.lan to host as batlenet server.
to host as batle.net you can use PvPGN

Batle.Lan just Lan emulator, you need to enter your friends IP to play with your friends..
if you want to act as host just like batle.net use PvPGN..
Does this work on newer "PATCHED" Versions of WC3? Anyone tried it on the latest release?
