resopalrabotnick Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 http://www.goteamspeak.com/ they say it's free for noncommercial etc. there's a big faq there and downloads for the software. you'll probably have to dig through some of that if you want to run your own server...

Ryan314 Posted January 1, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 Ok i got a server up and running but no one is able to get on it... any of u guys wanna try to see if it works? plz 192.168.0.100:8767 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 i haven't tried, but i can tell you with assurance that it doesn't work. what you gave is an ip that is not intended for public use. it is part of the ip addresses reserved for private/corporate INTERNAL networks. you have an ip addy from your isp. you need to use that and forward the port in question from your router to the 192.xxxxxx ip you gave. if it happens that some of the people trying to get on where in fact on the same internal network as you there might be other issues. but the major error stated above remains.

richcornucopia Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 He's right, you need to forward the port 8767 on your firewall to your internal ip and then you can give people your external ip:8767 and they can connect to that.

Ryan314 Posted January 1, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 Umm, i have trouble forwarding ports on my router so its in a dmz.. there shouldnt be a port forwarding problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 go to ipchicken.com to find out your ip address if you dont know it already and that is the ip people can connect to outside your network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 if the router is in a dmz and the comp the server is on isn't there is a problem. you still need to give the others the ip you receive from your isp. http://www.whatismyip.com that displays it for you.

Ryan314 Posted January 1, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 I gave another my ip and told him to put it in teamspeak.. still didnt work also im guessing i should put :8767 after that correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcornucopia Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 yep it shoud look like yourip:8767 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan314 Posted January 1, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 still wont work... only i can connect from my comp .. thats it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 yes. and like i said you will probably need to forward the port to the server. from what i saw on the site the udp one... but check the faq on that. otherwise the router gets udp packets on port 8767 and doesn't know what computer on the internal network they are for. in that case it may send it to all or it will discard them as an attempt at mischief. probably the latter. so you have to tell it that you are expecting stuff to come in on that port and that it is ok for the router to send it to 192xxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan314 Posted January 1, 2006 Author CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 Im gonna disconnect my router for a test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted January 1, 2006 CID Share Posted January 1, 2006 taking the router out of the link and hooking the modem direct to the pc running the server will of course ensure that every port gets forwarded to the computer...
