Router :'(

[Stammer]

Hi

Here is my problem:

I've got this router from Linksys called BEFW11S4 and that is just fine but the real problem is that I (My self) can't connect to my own server.

My IP is 192.168.1.100
Router IP is 80.165.128.182

And i am no magician with computeres (okay now i said that ...) But i need some help with configurating the server and my router because as i said me and computers... erh.. where is the power button?? j/k

[Spankinstein]

if you have the server and client on the same computer, you can connect to your loopback address of 127.0.0.1 or your local ip address 192.168.1.100.

Odd, I've tried using the same router you are and can't get it to forward packets at all. Can connect from within the lan just fine, but nobody from the outside can connect even tho ive forwarded 8767 udp and it has the latest firmware.

I have also tried and tried to make it forward packets buth my pals cant connect to it. But i don't know what to do i am kinda lost you know... But there is only one think to do keep trying..

Well i also tried with 127.0.0.1 but that didn't even work... So now i am really confused.. maybe i got what you said wrong... or maybe i am just not doing it right... Well thanks anyway

You cannot connect to the Server from the LAN using the LAN IP?
As long as that is not working forwarding a prot will make no difference.

Is there some error in the server log?
Please give a bit more info (server version, etc.. Just check the Forum Rules)

[pim]

From within the LAN, are you trying to connect to a TS server running on the same computer as the client. Or are we talking different boxes here. What operating system, any firwalls (XP) running by any chance?

[Stammer]

Ok now some of it is working

127.0.0.1 is working

And it is the same computer

Sever ver. 2.0.19.40
OS : Win Xp Pro

From the Socket error 10049 I suspect that you tried to fiddle around with the BoundToIP in the server.ini.
And you did get the error propabley because you tried to enter your external IP there. Am I correct?
If so, it seems that you don't know what you are doing there. If you don't know what you are doing leave it open.

I assume that you currently have entered 127.0.0.1 there. That would explain why only 127.0.0.1 works. Since you cannot forward to 127.0.0.1 no forwarding rule that you enter at your router will work.

Leave the BoundToIP open (which basically means that the server will answer on any IP that is assigned to your computer) and make a forwarding rule with a destination IP of the LAN IP of the TS server.

(It seems that you have two server instances up, one on 8767 and one on 6112. So you will need two forwarding rules, one with port 8767 UDP and one with port 6112 UDP)

If it still does not work, change the log level in the TS client to debug (Settings -> Options -> Other -> Log Options), restart the cilent to make the setting active, and post the client log here.

EDIT: You can ignore 11-01-04 21:29:54,ERROR,All,frmMain, unable to detect external ip. If you want to get rid of that message you can set ExternalIPDetecion=0 in the server.ini.
EDIT2: Change your passwords. You accidently posted them with your server.log.

Ok now BoundToIP=(nothing)

and 127.0.0.1 still works

and only on server is running now at 8767

password changed

and routing is done to...

Doesn't work

So the only thing that works is 127.0.0.1?
The forwarding is of no use as long as you cannot connect to the LAN IP (192.168.x.x).

Have you got a firewall running (remeber that XP has a built in one). If yes, try to disable it and check if then you can connect then to the LAN IP.

I thought I would direct you to my post here:

It might help.
