Am i right in saying the only things u need to change is the second ip address in the setup\!serverinfo and also on the DBserver to my computers net ip say 89.222.146.55 (not my ip just a number)

I have searched but nothing came up

actually not the same thing
if something happen to your network adapter like a choke. all 192.168 will disconnect and reconnect... but 127 will never do that

192.168.x.x is your local area connection and connects and disconects at any givern time.

Where as 127.x.x.x is a loop back lan address and never disconects.

a long sentence I don't understand.
did you turn off your firewall? or open 7000/7100/7200 ports in firewall?
where do you see "no connection could be made"?

191.168.1.x is wrong
192.168.1.x is right
127.0.0.1 is perfect

I suggest you change all of them to 127.0.0.1
then
change TBL_SELECTGATEIPS and dbsrv\!serverinfo to netip

You are not reading the guide are you !!!

1.Set the game ALL local IP - Can you login and play the game?
2.Set the game now for net - can other people login but not you??

If no.2 is correct - then it means your router does not support Loopback, this has been mentioned lots before...

Look in Mir2 section for Leo's thing she wrote.
