royal_titanium wroteso GDS is blocking ports ?
if yes can't I try port 81 ?
go to
www.tzo.com check if it works with them.
It's not about blocking ports you have a private ip, not a public ip.
Your ip is something like 192.168.100.12 (example)
all your request go through a NAT firewall. To find the IP of your firewall check online tools pages as find my ip, etc...
you cannot communicate with other computers on the internet using the 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x ip ranges because these ranges are reserved for private use in local networks.
So in other words, your name is john, but you cannot communicate with anyone under this name because John is suppopsedly dead. So this is what happens if john wants to send a message to jill.
John sends a message to Alfred
Alfred gets the message and sends the message to jill under his name
Jill gets the message and answers, thinking it's a message from Alfred
Alfred gets back the answer and forwards it to john.
This is close to what happens to your IP packets with the differece that the process with the IP packets is totally transparent, in other words alfred intercepts John's messages and changes messages without either John or Jill knowing.
Hey look it up on google
it's called "transparent NAT"
The aim of all that shebang is to use only one public ip for several computers, because public IP's are expensive. But the real aim in this case is just to piss us off.
