    Agent Unavailable Error

    Alright, players in my server don't ever get this error when interacting with each other, however, I am running the server on the same network that I am running my client on. It is the same client as all of the other players except I changed the IP to my inner network IP (The one the server is being hosted on) and I get this error from everyone when I join a game with other users in it.
    I tested the IP out as my DNS, Outer IP, Inner IP, then I tried running the client on the host and used local host. NONE WORK.
    And now that leaves me here. I have all ports forwarded to me from 1 ~ 9000.
    Before I was hosting this server, someone without a router was hosting it and never had a problem like this.
    Could there be an application out there somewhere to stop this from happening?
    Should I use specific ports on my client?
    My server is using port 6000 and my client settings are the following in the XML file:
    -------Server Tag--------------------
    <SERVER>
    <IP>192.168.1.108</IP>
    <PORT>6000</PORT>
    </SERVER>
    ----------------------------------------
    -------Network Port Tags-----------
    <NETWORKPORT1>6000</NETWORKPORT1>
    <NETWORKPORT2>8000</NETWORKPORT2>
    ----------------------------------------

    Any suggestions would be nice.

    Thanks,
    - Cheese

    An outer IP is your public IP, and I clearly told that I had tested this out and it did not work.

    MatchAgent is disabled, the person hosting before did not need it anyways, it's a routing problem. I can't see anyone, but others can see other people.

    Is it on your computer or on another computer on your network?

    127.0.0.1 is a loop back and also is the same as 'localhost'.

    Sorry dude. The only solution right now is to unhook your router. I'm looking for a solution, no luck yet though.

    Well, I'm screwed then.
    I can't unhook my router for I have 7 network connections.
    I have a Linksys WRT54G if that pops something in anyone's mind.
