Nat Problem

:wave: i want to send data from my pc (which Connecting to the internet) To another pc (Connecting To Router !) ..........

The Internet pc Ip is : 62.0.3.265
The Router Pc Ip is : 10.0.0.5
The Router Ip : 62.235.2.325

The Server Program in the Router pc .......

There Are a problem in the Clien Program ..........

Help me :blush:

The 10.x.x.x is an internal, private network. You cannot access a computer with its internal address if you're outside of the network.

Unfortunately I don't know much on socket programming, however; I will tell you that you'll need to connect from the client App to the 62.235.2.325 IP address. In order to get it to the server, you'll want to either setup DMZ on the router and point it to your server (this opens all traffic to the server, so it's not recommended) or use port forwarding and forward whatever port you're using to the server.

Also, both your client and server are using IPv4 so I'm not sure why you have them encapsulated in IPv6 classes.

any samples ?

this is the first time i hear about "port forwarding" ...
and does The MSN Messenger Use this way ?

bye .

I don't use MSN Messenger so I am not sure how it's setup. With most messengers, it doesn't need any port forwarding because everything is done remotely and the client applications just grab the information from the server. When file transfers are done, some IM applications need port forwarding.

Unfortunately I don't have any samples because I have never done any socket programming. I am preparing for getting my CCNA so I know quite a lot about networking, just not about programming with networking.
