Hello,

Ive looked at this tut >> http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,43447.0.html

And I can't change this part.. (Note: look were ive got prob)


As you can see, I wont to change it to my.. But in tut my router different to his so.. how can i change it?

PM ASAP please!

you don't need to change this, because the router forwards all packages to this ip …

The server console displays the IP that it is connected to - which, if you are on a router, is your address given to you by your Router.

Router: 192.168.1.1
Network User #1: 192.168.1.2
Network User #2: 192.168.1.3
Etc.

Network User –> Router --> Internet IP --> Internet
192.168.1.2 --> 168.1.1 --> 59.230.173.49 --> Internet Access

Step 1, You connect to your router.
Step 2, Router gives you access to the Router (192.168.1.2+)
Step 3, The router connects you to the internet (xx.xxx.xxx.xx (59.230.173.49 Example))
Step 4, You are connected to the internet.

I hope this is helpful. (:

Think of a Router as a border. You are in country A, and the "peeps" are in Country B.

For peeps to get to Country A, they need to go through your router.
For you to get to Country A, you're already through your router.

People in Country A don't need to "cross the border", or, use the Router IP.
People in Country B need to "cross the border", or, use the IP you are connected through, that the router has given you from the internet.

So, in short, people need to use your internet IP, and you use your router IP.

Just thought the above example would help you remember in the future. :)

router ip = Anything beginning with 192.168.
internet ip = Anything beginning with any other numbers.

Hello,

The IP Chicken = Offline > 86.137.129.***
IP from Server Files = Online > 192.168.1.**

Im not good with computers much.. but my dad is and was reading what you reply back.

So what it says up top, thats what happens.

So.. Do i use IP from Server Files for hosting my server? Because the IP Chicken is giving me Offline when i put it in the "IPCONFIG".

As I said in the above example about the whole Border thing, *you* connect to the game, using your Router IP.
Meanwhile, everybody else uses the IP Chicken IP.

IP Chicken = Offline!
