You must have a firewall blocking you to be able to host. If you have a router you have to allow BYOND in your firewall settings. Or use http://portforward.com. If you have dial-up don't either bothering hosting as nobody else will be able to enjoy the game.

I don't know if you know, but if you have a router you need to go to your routers allowed program list and put BYOND has an approved program. Also, of course port forward does not work. You have to pay for it, then it gives you the feature to be able to update your router.

I meant like if you added BYOND to the list to your router's list not your browser allowed sites. But if nothing I said works then I don't know. There is something you are doing wrong.

Set the port as a port forwarded port. Just create the static IP, port forward a port, and use that port for hosting.
