Info 1 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guinness 1,450 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 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.

Jos 1,303 Report post Posted February 14, 2011 I do use TCPStartUp before. =[ 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?
