Well...
I acknowledge that not everybody liked playing arcanum online, but others might be curious about it, and knowing of the troubles when playing from the main game i come with...
GameRanger!

Game ranger is a utility focused on playing online various games, it supports age of empires, call of duty, command and conquer, civilization, and ARCANUM!

i actually have not played arcanum online, mainly by the lack of people having it, but it would be nice to give it a try, just for fun.

GameRanger also offers a well ordered game list, chatrooms, and support for several games.

you can download it 'ere

This thread might be of use to you. Don't know how it compares to GameRanger but still it may be worth a shot.
