Problem entering room

[peterUK]

I am running WinMX 3.11 and Nushi client 2., I have been helping in a chat room for a long time and have been asked if I would like to be a co host. I have all the RCMS files etc but the problem is this. When I start WinMX and get the RCMS up then start Nushi so I can load the room bot I can not enter the room I created.

If I try to enter any other room with Nushi I can. I am using a D-Link DSL 504 router and have set up the port redirections for MX etc and we have tried everything with no luck. Every time I try to connect to the roomI created I get Time out error. Has anyone any idea's?

some routers dont allow loopback connections, ie. they dont let you connect to yourself using your external IP

to solve it when you join you need to join using a slightly different room name, change the _XXXXXXxxxx on the end of the room name to _0100007Fxxxx - for example "Test Room_192837111A2B" becomes "Test Room_0100007F1A2B"

that should then let you enter the room
