Re: [twsocket] router and IP

Why do you need your local IP address, why can't you bind to IP 0.0.0.0?

Also the website server after login returns to the client on the local pc
the verified IP address, which obviously is wrong with the router and 
after
the successful login is where i set the local pc server to start with the 
ip
return...i then get the 10049 error, should i find the ip that the router 
is
assigning...ie 192.x.x.x etc and use that for the server on the local pc 
or
still use the correct 81.103.x.x cable assigned one..

You will need to configure the router to do port forwarding.  What this
means is that you tell the router that any incoming connection on a
specified port gets directed to a specific local IP address (your PC).
So the PHP script will still try to connect to the router's IP address,
but the connection will be forwarded by the router to your PC.
