Okay first of all thanks everyone for the quick replies. :) I haven't tried changing the ip to the internal one yet, but is there any chance that this has to do with my ISP? I did some more testing last night, and so far everyone that has my ISP can connect, and those that don't can't. This leads me to believe that the problem isn't the ip specification, but something else...? Someone on my ISP was able to connect even when specifying the external IP in the server.cfg, that shouldn't have worked right? o_O
