I have a simple server program that connects with client program. It worked with 127.0.0.1 (should be local ip, I got it from a tutorial), but when I changed to my real ip the server part stopped working. The client seems to work. The 'bind' function fails.
It might be some elementary problem, as I'm new to network programming. The ports seem to be forwarded, as my router gives logs for the client application and seems to be not blocking it. Might be I don't know what should I set the server ip to, but I thought that my own ip should work.
I don't know much about it. Is it logical that my router doesn't even give logs as I launch the server? Should it work with my own ip?
