server on localhost -> no reply

[Pidsa]

Hi. I am hosting a TS2 Server on my own PC. I am behind a router.
Everyone from the Internet can connect (because I forwarded port 8767).I can also connect but only by using my internet IP. As the server is running on localhost I tried to enter the following IPs to connect to the server (so I would not have to re-enter my own internet IP [which is not static] everytime I connect with a new one) :
127.0.0.1
localhost
192.168.123.104
127.0.0.1:8767
localhost:8767
192.168.123.104:8767

All of them result the following error message (client) :
No reply from server
Maybe the server is offline
or maybe teamspeak is not running on it

23-07-03 20:11:24,368,ERROR,ProcedureInfo,Client Open,Exception: Timeout on recv LoginStep2 wait

I used the search function and found several topics regarding my problem, in most of them is recommended to try things like localhost and 127.0.0.1 but as you see I tried those and they do not work for me. Its interesting to see that the connection to localhost in one moment works and then suddenly does not anymore ( = I was able to connect once and tried to reconnect , without success ). However most of the time it does not work.

And yes there is a server running and no there is no firewall.

I had the EXACT same problem and uninstalling the client then reinstalling it worked for me.

Hopefully this will work for you.

damn, it still does the same thing, even after reinstalling the client. It's probably a bug because i tried EVERYTHING, and other user can connect fine to my server except myself.

i'm not behind a router or a firewall by the way.

strange ?? I never had probs in LAN connections...

- just to make sure, you can ping the LAN IP's fro mthe same PC ?
- you could play with the bindtoIP (server.ini) and bind the server on to your LAN IP of the TS server PC.
- 192.168.123.104 Is the IP of your PC where TS is running on it (not the IP of the router) ?
- can you connet to the webadmin ?

Same here.

- Yes, I can ping the LAN IPs cause they are all mine and I can also ping the router and other users in LAN.
- I already tried to bind it to localhost and it did not help against the problem but only caused that Internet users could not connect either.
- 192.168.123.104 is my LAN IP , the router's IP would be 192.168.123.254
- Yes I can connect to the webadmin


A few minutes ago I was able to connect to localhost from here 2 times , and again another reconnect ended up at the same error. Apparently the error depends on the server's mood as I can not see a system in that behaviour.

I get the same error "No reply from server Maybe the server is offline or maybe teamspeak is not running on it " i have tryed evrything dunno whats up with that but it sucks,but if i dont use it for aday it will work its wierd,i tried uninstalling updateing ip add,first time i had problem with TS by the way its great so if theres any new ideas on how to fix would be greatly appreciated.

yeah it worked the next day for me, and today i tried again. I logged in once, then diconnected, then tried to reconnect and it failed 2 times, then i tried again and it worked. Strange.
