So both, my brother and I, own arma 3. When one of us is playing a server on arma 3 its fine when one of us joins the same server, we both crash and says no message received and I am forced to quit.

One of you try running a VPN, if it works then you know it's an issue with the IP.
Be careful though, I don't think steam likes VPN's ( to avoid region locking ) try picking one in your country if possible.

a very crude (and honestly dated) means of protecting against smurf accounts and/or (clientless) bots was to disallow more than X number of connection from the same IP.

there may be an alternate port you can use on one of the machines to solve this issue. I had a similar problem in DayZ standalone.

I've had this with BF2. Me and my brother could play just fine on two servers at the same time, but joining on same server got error.
