Can't connect to my server localy.

[Kennz0r]

Hi!
My server works fine with hamachi, but I dont want to use it. I have changed the IP for people to connect to my WAN ip, and opened the ports. Now my friends can connect and play, but I can't. I have tried to put my WAN and LAN ip in the Internal.txt. When I put my lan IP there I get to select Channel screen, but I cant connect to any. Why?

You can't connect because WorldSvr (channel) use wan ip not local.

is there a way to work around this, and still be able to play with my friends without hamachi?

Yes, all you need to have is router, access to it and your provider must allow for open ports.
You said when you put lan IP you can't choose channel, but what happens if u put your WAN IP?

When I put WAN ip I cant connect at all. I have router with ports 38101-38190 open. I have tested them with portchecker, its working fine.

Other people can connect yes? I remember there were smth with loopback on router but I'm not sure if it's this.
Check If your router support loopback

Yea its 99% that your router doesn't support loopback, but make sure. If it's true, its impossible to open server on your router without using hamachi.
