Well, my friend has set-up a bukkit server on Minecraft. And I can connect fine when connecting through Hamachi. But when I try to connect to it through his ip from 'Whatsmyip', I get, 'internal exception java.net.sockettimeoutexception read timed out'

Any ideas on how to fix this? Because we want to be able to connect without using Hamachi. And yes, my friend has port forwarded :)

You need to port forward, follow the link and it will fix it all without using logmein hamachi.

I understand that but if his

I understand that but if his DHCP has changed his internal IP he needs to re portforward  and needs to go to command prompt and run ipconfig and figure out his new internal IP.

DHCP-   Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

Reason: Your friend reset his router causing the DHCP to reset and change his IP due to security reasons.

Outcome: f***s up all kinds of things.

Resolution: Listen to me :]

Thanks for reply,

Still nothing :/

Either my friend is doing something wrong, or it is something else causing the problem.
is there anything else that you think may be help?

The only thing that could have gone wrong is he is not port forwarding correctly.

This is the ip I am trying to connect through, 94.7.67.111. It just keeps saying 'Logging in', then I get that connection lost thing that I mentioned above. He has port forward... Several times, and stil nothing.
Could it just be down to his connection?

Well first try the IP normal

Well first try the IP normal not the zeros but at the end type this to see if it helps 00.000.000.000:25565 the 25565 is the port and if for some reason he has it other than the deafult your f***ed, and if none of this works and he managed to just mess everything up i can just be really nice and ill open a server for you and your friends just let me know i can give you guys full admin power just let me know.

Well, we already have our world built and everything, so it would be a pain to start again lol, thanks for the help though :)

I take it the host must have messed everything up or something? Because we should be able to connect through his external ip, yes?
