blacksheep25 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Did you change the server's port at all? Default port use's 25565 but if you have changed it in the server.properties file it will be something else. The other cause could be that you haven't forwarded the port the minecraft server is using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalbintion Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I'm not adding you to skype, so no. As for the issue, using your external IP on connecting to a server running locally causes unnecessary issues (it has to go out then back in, potentially getting stopped along the way) If this is for testing or personal uses only, use the ip: 127.0.0.1, as this will is the loopback (callback, home, etc terms) IP for connecting to yourself.

Kalbintion Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 If you want others to connect, you will need to allow the application to accept inbound connections through all security software protocols that may be in place along the route. Meaning: Anti-malware, firewalls, modems, and routers will need to be configured properly. All of which can be found out how to do via google on port forwarding or adding exceptions to a particular security software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
