As this problem became more complicated, we continued through email, then Teamspeak.

I wish to express my thanks to Mick for spending such an amount of time on solving the issues with port numbers and routers.  His knowledge on the subject material is superb .

Mick, your time is appreciated, and your programming is worth every bit to use.  Thanks again and I hope to be in touch with you again in the near future.

Cheers!

Hi Mick,

I have wrote in this thread because most of it deals with my same problem.  The module keeps saying server off line.

I run the ts server on a computer all by itself.

As described by the others in this forum, all my settings are the norm of ts, except for the ip of course.

I have a router, and all ports have been correctly opened, and set, and numbers confirmed.

The only thing I haven't done was email my service provider........I can't possible see why they would have anything to do with this as I have the ability to open and close ports on my router.

Any chance I'm missing something else that I may have overlooked?  The installation was perfect the first time, all info has been entered on the edit module page and numbers have been confirmed, yet it still says server off-line when it is on-line.

Would appreciate any suggestions. (Joomla 1.0.12)
