I figured it out - I was using a descriptive hostname ie.
"www.grassgames.com" but the actual host ip / port number was slightly
different - changing it to the actual ip/port fixed the problem.
A new problem now. I've implemented (it wasn't easy) STUN and UDP hole
punching and get get traffic send both ways in some router
configurations and only one way in other more complicated situations. I
believe if more than one router is in the system, things won't work,
traffic can be sent from the person behind one router to the person
behind two, but not received. Enet is doing its job perfectly, so its
not the place to ask this, but if you have any experience of this
problem advice would be appreciated. If not, great job with Enet.
BTW, the actual STUN/UDP punch through stuff uses sockets, not Enet.
Enet takes over once the connection has been established.
Cheers,
Aidan.

Are you using a TCP connection for server to client communication?
ENET? The problems could be pretty endless in this situation. Are you
positve that there was a successful connection between the server and
the client?

Hello there,
I mentioned before having problems getting connections over NATs, and
was told to investigate STUN etc. which I did. I ended up getting a
successful NAT UDP hole punch through solution going.
I finally got a connection working fine the other day with a friend via
2 routers.
However its still not working for a lot of people. I have a server setup
that is not behind any NATs that both players communicate with in order
to get the public network address of the other player.
The problem is that while the server can send a message to some players,
other players do not get any response at all from the server. The
message is sent from the server ok back to the exact address as the
incoming request from the player, but the player is not getting this
message.
Anybody know what the problem is here?
Cheers,
Aidan.
