I see me, but I don't see me outside.

Ok, I can view my music from my computer (as you would hope). But outside the lan I guess I cant access it... Tell me if I'm right but the link should be http//'mynetworkip'8081 so for me that http//192.168.1.58081 now no one else can see that server.. its this because I need to set up my modem to send the port forward to my pc?

You have to use your external IP adress.
The one you use at home is an internal ip-adress that only works behind your router.

here you can see your external IP adress [url2phfw4jk]http://www.whatsmyip.org/[/url2phfw4jk]

Hmm ok, thats fair enough... I thought that was strange. But yes of course your right. But then whats the address to that now http//203.173.49.1488081 ? or something else?

Also in the pic is my port forwarding setting. Are they correct?

Im no router expert, but its looks okey to me... Just check that its really your external ip. [url2p3z8hat]http://www.whatsmyip.org/[/url2p3z8hat]

In the original post you say you are using 192.168.1.[b2rtnbqy6]5[/b2rtnbqy6] locally but for the NAT-rule you have entered 192.168.1.[b2rtnbqy6]6[/b2rtnbqy6][/color2rtnbqy6], I think that's the problem.

Nah made it a static IP.

Can't tell what I'm doing wrong then.

Look at this also

Find your router here. [urleq0wnbsn]http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm[/urleq0wnbsn]

Then pick any program and just change the port.

Yeah, step ahead of ya, I've done that. The forwarding can't be the problem.

If its not the router it could be if you are running any local security software... like firewalls and such... Or the client is behind a firewall that dont allow to connect out on that port.

Don't know what a client is, but I got no firewalls. I have AVG.. no firewall on that.

the server is the computer where you have Vibe Streamer installed. A client is the computer that connect to the Vibe Streamer server with a webbrowser... and if that client is behind a firewall that blocks them to connect to your adress... for an example http//213.12.123.128081
their firewall might not let them connect out on port 8081...

thats a possible scenario... test and run your vibe streamer on port 80
that port is a standard web port that is open in all firewalls...

You dont have WindowsXP's internal firewall on, do you?

Nah XP firewall is off. But I can't connect to the server from my computer. Yet alone anyone else view it. That is through the exteranl ip. on the network is fine using the 192.168(internal), but not 203.123.12.1(external).

Port 80 works, BUT it goes to the routers config http.

"your computer" is it thatone Vibe Streamer is installed on or do you have another computer behind your router that you are running vibe streamer on?

Always try from the outside when useing the external ip.. i have some problems with my router to use the external ip from the inside of my LAN. then i have to use the local ip. 192.168.x.x ..

But if its not working from the outside it must be something with the router somehow. Try and bypass the router and connect the vibe streamer server directly out on the internet just for testing... if that dosent work either then i have no idea... )

Good call. I stopped bothering someone outside the network to check it. And yeah I couldn't access it from the same server PC. Thanks, someone said it asked for a user and password so I assume it works for me now. Will have to see when I go to work.
