    You most likely can't connect when you use your WAN ip because your router doesn't support loopback. In that case only way that you can have players from both LAN and WAN play at the same time is using something like Hamachi.
    Chumpy made a guide on it. Here:

    try to test it with friends, you cannot connect using your lan ip, try to go to another computer using different isp then you will see that you server is working, if you set your server to lan ip you can connect.

    you cant enter your own server because 1 computer 1 WAN ip .. so you need to read this guide of dordort http://forum.ragezone.com/f460/want-...it-now-503850/

    so you can play your own server .. im not sure to this but try it

    i think that is a waste of Precious Ram and CPU Process, It will just double your server load.

    Re: [HELP] confused in WAN ip to connect in game

    The ini files are fine. This sounds like the loopback problem.

    Try using the centos LAN IP in the 2 spots in the WOrldSvr ini and your internal.txt and see if that lets you connect. If it does then put it back to WAN and get somebody who isn't at your house to try, if that works then it is definitely the loopback problem and you will need to use Hamachi or a proxy.

    Re: [HELP] confused in WAN ip to connect in game

    I'm not that good with hamachi as i hate it myself. I only did the guide as installing the linux end is tricky and nobody had any idea how to do it.

    The logs are showing connection attempts now but the server is still using your WAN ip and not the Hamachi one.

    First make sure that the server is showing up in the Hamachi window as it won't work unless it is. Now run cabal_config again and when asked for the ip players will be connecting to enter the centos hamachi ip. Your client internal.txt should also be using the centos Hamachi IP.
