Windows External IP

[Booba]

Hello guys, it has occured a problem and it needs to be solved as quickly as possible, please.
Ok, here we go.
I have two computers, both connected to the same network, and my problem is that they both have the same external IP, observe their internal IP is different. How do I change one of the external IPs is my question.
I'll be on all the night so please answer! Thanks, Booba.

I guess you're using a router. That means that you'll have to forward the port needed for OT.
Depending on your router, http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.0.1 or http://10.0.0.1 should take you to a web interface where you can configure several things like port forwarding.

You should forward port 7171 to your pc's internal IP with both protocols (not sure if both is needed ).

For 7.6 both are.

Thats not the problem, I know how to portforward. The problem is that the both external IP are the same (mine and my brothers).
For example; my external external IP is : 80.217.56.234
; my brothers external IP is : 80.217.56.234
You see what I mean ?
Thanks for trying to help me out anyways, I would be glad to hear from you again.

You can't have 2 external IP adresses without 2 broadband modems... Your ISP give you a global IP adress when you connect to their network using your modem.

They could've give him two. My ISP gives me 5.

Aight, but you probably has the company-broadband then. Anyway, it's not the usual thing to have, and I really don't think he have.

Some ISP's give out more than one global ip. Depending on what they see fit best, my ISP give me 5, depending on what connection speed I buy from them.

They are supposed to be the same! I have 6 or more computers in my house with the same external ip!

Really? Can you host something on your computer allowing everyone to join?

 

[Moskis]

my and my brother do have the same IP no problems, if you dont want him to host something.. but you can use it

Yes. All you need to do is to forward port 7171 in your router and open the port up in your firewall.

I have portforwarded it but the external ip is still the same, so I guess that when somebody trys to connect it doesnt know if that persons computer is going to connect to my comp or my brothers.. :S

 

[Jonern]

You set that when you forward the port in the router!
When you forward the port, you forward it to one of the internal IPs!

It works like this..

Some noob wanna play you server -> Connect your external IP -> Your router with the external IP -> Your router with the external IP checks what you put in the portforward and route it to the correct internal IP you specify -> Your internal IP with pc with ot on -> OT Server
