i even got help from a couple of my "computer wiz" friends and tried two different ways to set up a server, being of course port forwarding and using hamachi... i also disabled my firewall to see if that did anything. Anyways between the two ways i was always able to log on, while the server was on from the hosting computer.
on a side note, while using hamachi i could only sign in using my hamachi ip address... while portforwarding it would only work whilst using localhost? CAN ANYBODY HELP ME OUT ABIT?
This is the wrong section. It belongs in the Support section.

Every time that someone on the support forums doesn't say anything after I tell them a possible solution, I assume that they are having too much fun enjoying their fixed Minecraft to reply.
I think I can help out :smile.gif: although I am not sure on what your problem is. have you used a port checking tool? go download one, don't use the one on some website they are un reliable.
1. make sure port forwarding IS on
2. is Whitelist enabled?
3 make sure you give them your external IP address. If you give them the 192.168.1.xxx IP that is not your external. All computers have IP connected to their router, and they start with 192.168.1.xxx
4. Google "what is my IP and give them that IP.
5. when you click you RUN.bat does it say there might be a port already running on that computer? if so click ctrl shift escape scroll down and end process of java.
Not sure if this will help alot but... did you go to the server properties file, with hamachi type your hamachi Ip where it says "Ip adress:". and with port forwarding they must type your eternal Ip, which you can find at Ipchicken.com
on a side note, while using hamachi i could only sign in using my hamachi ip address... while portforwarding it would only work whilst using localhost? CAN ANYBODY HELP ME OUT ABIT?
Good luck with your problem though! :smile.gif:
