If I want other people to connect my server, do I need to listen for my router's IP (like "192.168.2.100") or for my real IP?

LAN IP Address, since you are port forwarding (I presume) on your Router from your Public IP Address to your LAN IP Address and this is what will be receiving the incoming messages. Did you try it already?

Not working. The client still doesn't connect to the server.

here's the server code

Global $tcpIP = "192.168.2.101"
Global $tcpPort = "1503"
Global $tcpListen = TCPListen($tcpIP, $tcpPort)

Here's the client code

Global $tcpIP = "my.real.ip.address"
Global $tcpPort = "1503"
Global $tcpConnect = TCPConnect($tcpIP, $tcpPort)

And here are my router settings

What am I doing wrong?

You set up the port forward, but didn't checkmark the box.

The checkbox is for marking the port in order to delete it.

It has nothing to do with making the port forward work.

Is this the total code for both?

If so you are missing: TCPStartUp()

Ok, so do the scripts work when you run them both on your own PC?

Do you have any Firewall running on the Server PC that stops the special port?

Windows' firewall was blocking it. It works now. Thanks!

Every router is different, I suppose. On my router .. it enables/disables it.
