"Unable to connect to realm list server" Please help???

**pioneer1337** · 03-09-2008

Hello, I keep getting the "Can't connect to realm list server" error when I try to connect to my server. This only happens when I use my external IP but when I use 127.0.0.1 it works fine. So I know it probably has something to do with my IP / router. I have a Linksys by the way. Anyways, I have tried everything I can think of. I have forwarded every port that I need to, my firewall is completely off, I added my IP to the "hosts" file in my etc folder, etc. SO I have no idea what could possibly be the problem. :confused: Heres a screen shot of what ports I have forwarded:

Did you follow the instructions on the guide I linked?

Turn on DMZ and set it to your IP (100 I guess).

DMZ basicly opens every port. If that doesn't work, upgrade your firmware to DD-WRT and try it again. If it is still not working, get a new router.

d12183, Yeah I followed that guide. It solved my previous problem but now I'm getting this. Leptoon, I tried that already and I just got this router so I'm not going to get a new one anytime soon. Does anyone else know why this could be happening?

is ur comp ip 192.168.100? as i would find this hard to believe unless you have 100 comps on 1 network or unless u changed it to that?

Wont let me use 192.168.1.1 ... I dont know why it just says "Invalid Value: Cannot use Router IP, etc...." so I used 192.168.1.100... which seems to have worked for my other problem when I was using 192.168.1.2 (I switched it to .100 and the logonserver finally connected.. but now I have this problem.)
