what netshroud said.

The person who is hosting the server can connect via the public ip (internet
tab or favorites tab in the server browser) which will display the public ip
for you to connect. If they connect to the server using the lan tab, then it
will use the private network ip and you will not be able to connect since
you are not on their network.

hope this helps.
