It is not ISP configuration it's the firewalls in the "routers" you use. Check past emails for the explanation of how NAT works and why it fails when addressing lan computers inside the lan by routable ip addresses.

No firewall, no router. Reconnecting to my own network gave identical results. My current ISP/router/firewall setup *will* show my own server when I'm on the same network that my server is on. When I was Quest using a Cisco 678 it likewise would show my own server. When I was using Centurytel with a Westell router, it would not show my own server. Whether or not you see your own server apparently has nothing to do with being behind a NAT firewall, as two out of the three times I've been like that I saw my own server consistently. I think it has to do with your ISP configuration, I'm sure there are people here that can explain it better then I can. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
