Wan? sockets? not working in other countries

Hello all,
I have two computers one of which is set up as a server that listens to clients using sockets.
ok here is what happens:
--> when I connect to the server through lan - everything is fine
--> when I connect to the server using my neighbours wireless network - everything is fine
--> when my friend form Europe tries to connect to my server - BAM... , the page does not load...(I live in Canada).
I dont know what can be the cause of this. I tried to research such terms as WAN which I became aware of today, but I still dont fully understand concepts related to it.
Here is what displays when I go to my routers website:
System
Uptime      4day:2h:46m:49s
Firmware Version      v1.2.5
Wireless Configuration
Mode      AP
Band      2.4 GHz (B+G)
SSID      My networkk
Channel Number      11
Encryption      WEP 64bits
BSSID      00:02:72:4f:b6:bb
Associated Clients      0
TCP/IP Configuration
Attain IP Protocol      Fixed IP
IP Address      192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask      255.255.255.0
Default Gateway      192.168.1.254
DHCP Server      Enabled
MAC Address      00:02:72:4f:b6:bb
WAN Configuration
Attain IP Protocol      DHCP
IP Address      74.56.2XXX
Subnet Mask      255.255.255.0
Default Gateway      74.56XXXXX
MAC Address      00:02:72:4f:b6:bc
Could anyone explain to me what may be the cause of the above issue? Is my computer connecting to internet through WAN? If so, may this be the source of my problem?
Im still a noobie when it comes to networking so any little hints wil do.

If youd like, go to belox.gotdns.com and see whether the website loads.
Id appreciate it if you could tell me if it does load or not.It does not. I am now with the ISP using phone lines.
Here is what I think. You and your neighbor are on the same segment with the cable ISP.
I can bet his IP address is very similar to yours.
Your ISP does not allow you to operate servers. It's written in the contract.
They probably block the ports you mention somewhere up-stream inside their network.
Your server cannot be seen from that level up, but your neighbor is bellow that level.

  • Derivation Rules Not Working for other company codes

    Hi,
    I have 5 Company codes and only for one FM was activated. now i want to activate FM for all 5 company codes. for which i have assigned the FM area to all 5 company codes. I have also assigned the derivation strategy to all 5 company codes as well. now when i post a transaction for any other company code derivation rules is not being process hence no commitment item or fund center is derived. however for the original company code for which FM was activated in the first derivation rule are working fine means system is deriving commitment item and fund center. can any one tell me why derivation rules are not working for other company codes? do i have to add Company code in source field of derivation strategy? could this be the reason? because in beginning there was no other company code so we did not included any company code field in the first place.
    Regards,

    Faizan,
    Go to  Funds Management Government> Actual and Commitment Update/Integration> Activate/Deactivate Funds Management.
    In the screen create an entry for each Company Code and Funds Management Area combination.
    Activate the AA Derivtn flag if you want the derivation to be called and the Update flag if you want to update commitments and actuals in FM.
    Thanks

  • Qwertzuio not working - all other keys fine

    Hi,
    the aforementioned keys on my Air's internal keyboard have stopped to work. This has happened before, and it went away again. PRAM-Reset and Restart had not solved it at the time, I don't know what did.
    Now they are dead again. Does anyone know how to reactivate them?
    Regards,

    There are many people using the basic (i5) 2012 MacMini and even older ones to edit complex films in FCP X so you should have no problems.
    I have been using FCP 7 and FCP X since they came out on my 2008 iMac Core 2 Duo and am thinking of getting the same model as you rather than pay the astronomic price for a new 27" iMac.
    The performance won't be quite as fast but it will be at least 4 times faster at rendering than my old iMac.

  • If i buy an iphone 6 without contract from the US, would it work in other countries with non-US carriers?

    if i buy an iphone 6 without contract from the US, would it work in other countries with non-US carriers?

    Contract free versus SIM free are different. What you want to do is to wait for Apple to sell the SIM free version of the iPhone 6. See this explanation from the Apple 5S page that details this...
    If you buy iPhone for T-Mobile, it will arrive with a nano-SIM card already installed that you can activate by visiting an Apple Retail Store or a T-Mobile store or by calling T-Mobile. If you buy a SIM-free iPhone, you will need to purchase a GSM-compatible nano-SIM card separately. In the United States, you can purchase such a SIM from AT&T or T-Mobile. When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier.
    Also be aware warranty service is country specific. So if you buy a phone in the US and it develops problems you would need to return it for service in the US...

  • IPhone 4S (contract-bound) working in other countries

    Hi
    I wanted to know if my ATT contract bound iPhone 4S will work in other countries like France and India where a SIM-card is used as someone told me that my iPhone is unlocked as long as I'm using ATT. If that is correct, is there any way to use/unlock my phone without paying additional charges in the respective countries.
    Thanks

    The iphone is locked to AT&T and cannot be used with a SIM card from any other provider.
    You would have to pay for an international roaming plan from AT&T.

  • Elite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update

    DElite Pro, CMSS-3D not working and other issues after driver update <font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="4">Elite Pro CMSS-3D control (on I/O console)no longer controls CMSS-3D.
    The only time it works is if the original drivers are installed from the installation CD.
    ANY other drivers stop the control on the Elite Pro I/O console from having any effect on CMSS-3D.
    Also at one time when I cotrolled volume, CMSS-3D(original drivers), EAX and Crystalizer from the Elite Pro I/O controls then I had on screen display of said control that was being moved(on I/O console).
    Now regardless of what drivers are installed, there?are no longer any on screen indicators.
    The indicators looked like the ones that show when using the remote controller.
    Anyone have any ideas?

  • Additional Fields for ESS-Business Card Not Working for Certain Countries

    Dear Experts,
    We were trying to configure the additional fields to be displayed in Business Card - Overview Screen for all countries. We don't have problem configure and get the new fields display for Malaysia (Molga = 14) but having problem for the field to display for Hong Kong (Molga = 27) and Singapore (Molga - 25).
    The strange thing is I am following the same steps as I configured for Malaysia. Somehow it is not working for Hong Kong and Singapore. As I understand, there is only 1 place to configure in SPRO for this requirement:
    Personnel Management -> Employee Self-Service -> Service-Specific Settings -> Own Data -> Customizing of Personal Information Screens -> Determine Fields for Business Card on Overview Screen
    Please help!

    Hi Siddhart,
    Thank you for the information. We are currently in EhP3 with below Support Components installed.
    Software Component: SAP_HR
    Release: 600
    Level: 60
    Highest Support Package: SAPKE60060
    Software Component: EA-HR

    Highest Support Package: SAPK-60334INEAHR
    The note 1159911 provided is within SAPK-60304INEAHR. Thus, I don't think this is the root cause of this inconsistency base on the Highest Support Package installed in our system.
    Anymore hint? Anyone? Please...

  • WAN replication not working for objects

    I am trying out the WAN replication example from the Tangosol website. I got the Boston-London example working. However, it seems to only work for simple types like String, int, etc. Objects like hibernate, compressed string are not replicated across. Is more config added for this to work?

    Hi Sham,
        In one of environment we are using publish and author server. Custom comments are replicating on Author environment.  We are not using custom workflow or JCR observation.Created one more environment for Production setup where 2 publish and 1 author instance. For this comment are not auto replicated on Author instance.
    Default comment modification and comment activation launcher are in place, no change in this. Does it not working due to additional Publish Instance and if so what additional setting will required to address it ?

  • Main Socket Not Working, But Line is via Another L...

    Our main socket is not working -- ie, when a phone is plugged in, there is no signal/dial tone.  However, the line still works via a line box in another room.  Is this a BT fault?  If not, how can I get it fixed?  Thanks.

    Hi Elsiejean
    It is possibly not a fault some properties/businesses have multiple service points/sockets in, you can check this by calling BT and request to check this,did you pay a connection charge? if not BT will have carried out a check on the property prior to you moving in and for example may have found multiple lines so the main one you say that does not work may have been ceased meaning an engineer/installation charge would apply and the latter which you say worked may have just been a stopped line or takeover connection hence they choose to use that one,i could be wrong if it's only one line your main point may be broke does the working socket have a BT openreach logo on or is it a extension.also BT have supplied you as agreed so if you do need an extension or other line already present activating you would have to pay 127.99
