I've tried almost every PortForward turtial on the forum, and I've ben on Portforward.com and found my router, but I always did like it said and I still couldnt log in on my server with the new IP address.

My router is a Inteno - DSL Router X5668

Please help ;)

Download TeamViewer and send me your login id/password and I will help you out. TeamViewer is a remote desktop software that is free (as long as you pick the non commercial version), in case you were wondering.

Completely understandable, but I can assure that I am not one to do anything foolish. If you are uncomfortable with it though, I am not one to force you either. If you change your mind, you know where to find me.

PS. I do not need access to steer your computer. But it is heck of a lot easier for me to help you if I can see everything in front of me.


EDIT: Have you also checked your firewall, if it allows incoming connections on that specific port?

Of course. TeamViewer is just an easy, quick way of getting things done. But that's okay. Would you care to show me a screenshot of your port forwarding section?

Chris wont do any thing to harm your computer. As you can tell by the orange name he fairly known around here. And if you see any thing you don't like all you have to do is hit esc and it will boot the other person off

Select custom server, type in a name that you'll easily recognise (e.g. Tibia or OpenTibia). Type in your local IP address in the Server IP Address field (192.168.x.x). Set all four port fields (both the external and internal ones) to 7171 and set the protocol to TCP / UDP. Hit the save/apply button.

ok goto start menu just type in or click "run then type "cmd" then type in ipconfig in the specified area and now for a number that is your IPv4 and then copy and paste that number into web browser (password is usually admin,admin) then look for where it says somthing like gaming or applications. then it will show a row of places to type. put in 7171 and 7172 and then yoou should be done

thats what i knowi tried my best if it didnt work sorry mate

You may find your local IP using the command line. Do as the previous poster said, hit Windows Key + R, type cmd, hit enter. Once a black DOS window pops up, type ipconfig. You will get a bunch of text. Locate the string that has the title 'IPv4' and get the IP from there (it starts with 192.168...). Leave the remote IP blank.

Thats wierd, when I open the cmd and type ipconfig it is not any numbers starting with 192.168 the numbers are only 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.5 and 255.255.255.0

10.x.x.x is also a private (local) IP range. Although a bit more rare. Try using 10.0.0.5 as your server IP.

Okey I can log into the server now on 10.0.0.5, but I need to test if other players can do it too...
Btw, this is how it looks when I run the server does it look right to you?

No, the global IP should be different. What IP do you get from What Is My IP Address - Shows Your IP Address If it is something other than 10.0.0.5 (which I assume it is), you should use that IP in your server config.lua file.

I get this ip "80.203.124.101" when I go on What Is My IP Address - Shows Your IP Address but when I log in on that it just says that the server is offline. You said something of firewalls how can I get them to not block the port if they do it?

Btw this is how it looks like in my router now:

You, being on your local machine should use the local IP (10.0.0.5 in your case). And everyone else whom is not connected to your internet, should use your global IP (80.203.124.101 in your case). In case you want to use a website application for your server as well, you are obligated to unblock port 80 as well (or any other port of your liking, but then you would have to append it to the URL (e.g. http://80.203.124.101:8080/ if you pick port 8080)).
