I'm having the same old issue with on my LAN the client and server connect fine, yet outside the lan they won't connect. I have read and tried what has been suggested in other posts but am not having any luck at this. here's what I got:

Server:
nethost(100)
netsetport(3999)

Client:
netconnect("the extrenal IP here")

Port forwarding is enabled on the server PC and i checked that yes it is forwarding 4000 to the correct PC.

The server PC is not running any anti-virus/firewall software at this time. The PC at my parents house had it's anti-virus/firewall disabled as to prevent these issues >.>

Now when i run the client from a computer at a my parents house, it is not able to connect/find the server which is at my house.

Like I've said I've read about 20-30 posts specifically about multisync and this problem and I've tried several ideas and none are working.

Any help is appreciated at this point ^^

quick edit, port is set to 4000 in the program and 4000 is forwarded for the server. not 399 as said

Not too knowledgeable about networking. You might have better luck on the Geek Culture board (but who knows, I have been wrong before)

@Nomad
Did you try contacting Benjamin Directly? He's the author of Multisync and should be able to point you in the right direction.

Enjoy your day.
