Step 2
Run pLan and wait until it automatically minimizes to the system tray. Then right click on the pLan Client which is placed on the system tray and select "Internet" ONLY. (DO NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE)

Run NFS MW and select LAN Play.
If you see a server named 'Joe' you are in the right place
You can either join this server and create/join a game in it or start your own server in the LAN lobby.
