I can connect to server from the computer that runs the server; but attempts to try connect another computer within the network just never worked...I have tried everything that I can think of!!

server ip: 192.168.1.109;
ip of the computer that tries to connect: 192.168.1.146
2 computers are both using WIFI;


I have changed the sfs-config.xml (under the example folder) to server's ip address, 192.168.1.109; suppose that is a "must" ?

I also added server ip to AdminTools>ServerConfiguration>Socket Address;
guess this is a must too?


Then I even went to AdminTools>Ip Filter, and added both computer's IP to "white-list"...

I also tried to change the port in the config file from 9933 to 9936, add the port to "Socket Address" too...

And the other computer still don't connect!!!
What else did I miss???

It seems you missed anything.
Maybe you have a firewall preventing connection on port 9933?

I tried it at school network and got my teacher to help, he couldn't figure it out either lol.
But he show me an better alternative, now I am just running 2 instances from my computer to do debugging. It works even better.

Thanks for the help anyways !
