I've been running a private server for me and some friends for around a month. Other than one player not being able to connect well there were absolutely no problems. Then one night my wife was going to get on our server for the first time and she couldn't connect, it said the server may be down. Since she's on our ip we tried using the URL the website reroutes you too when you connect to your own server. Said it was down. Now everyone gets the same thing and no one can connect but me. Any suggestions?

here's a copy of the server properties file:

Did you make any changes

Did you make any changes recently like a new router or perhaps a different firewall/antivirus? Make sure all the settings on them are the same. One thing you could try is hosting the server from your wife's computer and seeing if you can connect on yours, that will let you know if it's a network or a computer problem.

I'll try that soon. There

I'll try that soon. There were no changes at all. Just worked then didn't. I've also redownloaded the server software again, still nothing.
