Thread: Synergy Help!!!!

Downloaded synergy. Its cool to play on a random server, but I am getting over it. So.... what I tried to do was host an instance of my machine (more than capable). A buddy of mine who lives down the road and I want to play some co-op HL2. I opened the ports in my linksys router (27010-27020) and made sure it was set to th right IP (192.168.1.100). When i boot it up, it works fine, but my buddy gets "Server is not Responding". I messed with it a bit and made him try the same thing.... no worky. We both have Hamachi (its an internet thingy that makes the users in your channel act as if they are on LAN). Tried again... same problem....

Anyone have any idea?

192.168.1.100 isn't actually your IP address. That is mearly the IP of the computer (you need the IP assigned to you by your TelCo)

Go to http://checkip.dyndns.com/ That will tell you the actual IP of your router and your friend should be able to connect.

Yeah I have my IP... Hamachi shows me this. When I meant the 192.168.1.100 was my IP I meant that the ports were forwarded to that address.
