Hello,
When people try and connect to my server they get a error, Connecting to Blah blah blah... Connection failed retrying...

Something like that anyway.

I have done all you need to do, port foward and everything.

I just do not get it, i can connect with 127.0.0.1 but people cant connect with my external ip address:7777

Please help,
Rileyy

1. You have forward your router?
2. you have a static IP?
3. people connect with your REAL IP and forwarded port?

No you do not need a Static IP, You just need to forward your ports
