won't completely connect outside my private network

Post by bruderbell »

Hi,
So I'm trying to connect using the java viewer. My computer running vncserver is in my own network, so I've set up my router to forward the port 5800 to my intranetwork IP address. I checked my WAN IP, I type it (with :5800) into a computer not on the internal network, and the tab in IE7 shows the name of the computer I'm connecting to, but won't completely connect. I tell it to go ahead an run Java, but it hangs at a blank white screen. What's a guy to do? It works fine within my internal network. And it didn't work at all from outside the network until I configured the router, but now it just doesn't load all the way.

That's genious. I couldn't find any posts when I'd searched. I had to tell my router to let port 5800 through, and then another rule to let 5900 through. Just tested the connection and a buddy in Latvia was able to connect! Thanks -
