So...As the title says, and I have no idea why it won't let me, as others are able to get on the server, yet on this comp, I can't get on mine, the ports are forwarded, as it's not my first time hosting, but I don't think I've ran into this problem before, When trying to connect, I get "Connecting..." for a bit before the connection failed pops up. I can access the server fine on the comp that the server's hosted on, but not on this one...for some reason.

I know for a fact that if I'm connected to my LAN I can't use the WAN IP on my new router, it tries to redirect to the routers admin interface. However my old one was happy to router the WAN IP to the local devices perfectly fine.. | |
Well, usually I'd think of using the LAN address after WAN if it fails, but...Dunno I just didn't think of using it x3 No one's perfect heh.
