Hello!

i have a server that i running, and when i set up the same server on a another pc and check the IP on that one, it says i have the same ip on both pc (whats my ip.com) how can both pcs have the same ip?

That pc i running the server on right now has 81.224.142.59, and when i check on the other pc, it is same 81.224.142.59.
the only way i can join the other server is to join 192.168.0.102 even if it says it has 81.224.142.59. on whats my ip.

My pcs have IP 192.168.0.100 and 192.168.0.102. the server is running on pc with 192.168.0.100(81.224.142.59)
i can join with both IPs, all the ports is forwarded on both 192.168.0.100/192.168.0.102, but its just that the other one gets same IP 81.224.142.59.
Other players can only join with "81.224.142.59" and not with "192.168.0.100" right?

Okay what you are seeing with ip.com is called your public IP address. They will be the same, because they both access the internet from the same connection. Its split up by your router in your home.

My suggestion if you are trying to host from home, Set the computer with the server to a static IP address like 192.168.0.90, and port forward to that IP. That keeps it from dropping when your DHCP renews your lease, because you are not using DHCP on that computer.

If you port forward port 7778 to 192.168.0.102, and 7777 to 192.168.0.100, they should both work.

Beware, some ISPs do not allow hosting from home, and depending on your speed, it could be laggy for other players, or even be completely unplayable.

Good luck.

I have been hosting from home before, forgot that you join with 192.168.0.102 to my other pc, i just tought 81.224.142.59 was the right IP.
i have both IPs port forwarding on both 7777 and 8888, so i guess i just have to start the server and give ppls IP 192.168.0.102 to join? speed on the net or of the pc? because i have 100/10 as you can see under this message.
maybe 10Mb up is to low?

No you have to give them the Public IP. People outside of your home will not be able to join if you give them 192.168.0.102.

Ah ok, but why cant i join the same server on my other pc with the other port?
if i have 1 server on each pc, one at 7777 and one at 8888, shouldnt both servers being shown on same ip but from port 7777 and 8888? i can only find one on that ip and has port 7777, not the server on my other pc with port 8888.
