Antrix Connection problem

I have read multiple posts regarding people getting stuck on "connecting" which seems to be the closest issue. Personally, i'm being held up on Authenticating, and I dont know why. I attempted the double realm strategy but i dont understand it too well. Why do leave it to connect on 127.0.0.1, and yet give it two completely different IPs below? What should my realmlist be set to? I tried setting it to the two different IP's (internal and external apparently) but then it just wouldn't connect at all. So i set everything back up to one single realm, with 127.0.0.1:8093 as the ip and the realmlist. This is the only setup that reaches the authenticating stage then it just disconnects me. Some people that are posting real.conf files i notice have 8912 ports or something, and they dont match with the ip's below, so i'm totally and utterly confused.

The connecting issue is a problem from router ppl. 127.0.0.1 is the localhost ip, and for make the double realm triky u need 2 realms, one for the LAN with ur lan ip(not 127.0.0.1) and other with external. In ur realmlist put the lan ip, and for the external ppl the public ip.

Thank you for the reply. I now have it set up with my internal ip which i found out via run>cmd>ipconfig, and my external using whatismyip.com. I set my realmlist to my internal IP, however it still remains stuck at auntheticating. I want the server just to play on by myself btw, i dont care for anyone connecting to it at all, if that lessens the burden on my getting this thing to work at all lol.

I set up the realmlist to my internal IP this time, everything worked, but again stuck at authenticating. Not sure at all what to do anymore.

Don't double post.
