I am creating a Minecraft Bukkit server. I have port forwarded correctly but when my friends try to connect to the server with my external IP address it says connection refused, the server binds to the port correctly unless I enter my external IP address instead of leaving it blank. On port checker websites it says that the port is active when the server is running. .
I can connect to the server using localhost and my local ip address and so can people connected to my WIFI but nobody can connect using the external IP address.
