Thanks. I bought vps in windows azure but there is the same problem :l

Well if it's not only that program then it's a settings problem with your configuration. I'm taking from your post that the LAN (local IP) keeps popping up on the server rather then the WAN (internet IP)?

Did it work before or is this a new setup? Did you change any Ethernet configurations at all? I'm assuming you have internet capabilities and connections on this machine correct?

I'm not changed anything in the server. It's just mainly configured like that. Local ip is in the ipv4 address. And we have public ip for using. In the settings dhcp enabled

Hah soz for the late reply, poop you're a mod now Monolith lol grats.

Umm I'm not familiar with this Amazon EC2 but from the sounds of things (having the same issue on Azure or w/e) and from what Nikolen is saying it sounds like the issue here is simply a fundamental misunderstanding of IP addressing and how it's actually supposed to be working...

Your IPv4 address is always going to be your local internal IP address. He seems confused as to why it's not giving him another address (he's expecting WAN address?), but your local internal address is all it's ever going to give you.

The issue's with the game servers. They shouldn't be using your private IP in the first place.

Nothing wrong otherwise.
