OS: Windows 7 (both devices)
Java: 7.72 (both devices)
MC Version: 1.8.x
Network Connection: PC - Wired; Laptop - Wireless. Both use the same (assuming static) IP.
So here's the deal:
I've been on MC and toying with server setups since 1.7 Beta, and yet there's one bug that's recently popped up that I just cannot find an answer to.
I can host a server just fine on my PC and my brother can join it no problem with my laptop on the same network (assuming I connect with localhost). There have also been zero issues with us joining a server hosted by someone else (paid and non-paid/vanilla and modded servers) even though both devices are technically using the same IP login.
Now, I did in fact forward a separate port for the laptop so that he could host a server for his buddies even if I was hosting one already (mine being 25565 and his 25566), however, I can't seem to join his server when he's in it (I can if he isn't), and he's forced to use his public IP because for some reason localhost will not let him in. I've gone over the firewalls (weren't blocking to begin with), I made triple-sure the ports were correct (tested successfully by friends several countries away), no files were corrupted, etc.
First of all, I don't understand how or why localhost won't work on the laptop when it does for my PC. The only solution I found for that was the firewall thing and that was ruled out quickly. I have also tried to get it to use its iPv4 and the universal router number, but both were immediately shut out with java exceptions with no further info.
If anyone has any ideas or if I've missed a piece of crucial info, please let me know! This problem has been getting in the way quite a bit lately, and the only workaround I have for it is to copy his world files off the laptop to the PC and have me host it.
MidasGold is ONLY required if you were hosting your own server and needed to migrate from BOP 0.5.1 to 0.5.2. The only thing clients have to do is upgrade to BOP 0.5.2. The crash you are getting is due to the fact you are still using the 0.5.1 BiomesOPlenty.cfg file. Delete your BiomesOPlenty.cfg file in .minecraft/config so it can regenerate with 0.5.2 settings then it will work.
Dr. Zhark, I spent about 2 hours trying to fix BiomesOPlenty as they have instructed over there, but their patching program, MidasGold, does not appear to be working for the Multiplayer side of things. The only plus side is that my Singleplayer can generate new worlds again with the biome mods.
I don't know what to do at this point. I have no idea what these IDs are converting from, otherwise I'd just enter the changes myself. I figure since there's like 17 people on the server right now then someone has to have found the right way to do it, right?
If at all possible, can I have the IDs or a correct patch file or a working .minecraft zip, or something so I can get back to the server? Please? :<
Wow ._. Guys, leave him alone! Coding is a lot of hard work and its only been a few days. Check back in a couple days instead of hounding him to do it. He's trying to get it done! It won't go any faster with you all breathing down his back! D:

Bump?
No one has any ideas?

The link here is a pic of the message I get every time I try to log on to your official server: http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l341/BumblebeeXrocks/IDMismatch_zps8c77f005.png
