Still no luck. I think you have Windows Firewall active on the server PC. What happens if you try to connect from another PC on the same internal LAN? Same thing probably. You have to open port 2401 on Windows Firewall on the server PC as well as redirectiong port 2401 on the Internet Firewall to the server PC on your LAN. This works perfectly well for me (has done so several years). /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
