D-Link DSL - 2640S and Teamspeak 3 server
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone nows how to let TS3 Server through the router so that my World of Warcraft Guild members can access it via the internet. I have, I think, opened the relavent Ports on the router but still not sure what I am doing wrong. I can access it locally via my LAN but when I try to connect via the DynDNS address that I have setup and setup on the router I can not connect. I have setup the DMZ to my Webserver which has the TS3 Server running on it but unable to connect as well as the Dynamic DNS.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

I try to connect via the DynDNS address that I have setup and setup on the router I can not connect.
There may be a way to access it from within your LAN by making entries in your Hosts file, but I don't know how this is done.

Thanks for the reply
For me to be able to view my website from my home server, I had to setup a DynDNS account so that I could create a hostname which I use to access my website and my TS3 server which worked fine with my old Netgear Router, which has since died. I contacted Sky and they have sent out a new D-Link router which I have now got and installed and working, I can access my website but not my Teamspeak 3 (TS3) or Teamspeak 2 (TS2) server. I can connect to it via my own LAN by using my servers name but when I try to connect to it from the internet or get any of my World of Warcraft Guild to connect both myself and my Guild members can't.
Not sure what else I can do other than try to get my Netgear router working again.
Here is my web address http://traceydixon.dyndns-home.com
If you need my TS3 Server connection info please let me know and I will put it up here for you. You will need to download the TS3 client from http://www.teamspeak.com to be able to connect to it.Last edited by techgirl1966; 11-08-11 at 02:22 PM. Reason: Added web address

The link in that post work just fine.
If you aren't already aware, you should know that running a server from home is against Sky's T&Cs. Also should your connection drop, you won't get the compensation that a business connection would entitle you to.
It might be better to consider renting a web server. This would provide you with faster access for everyone and you could still retain a lot of control. If you are friendly with a provider, it might be possible for you to install your own server on their premises.

Re: D-Link DSL - 2640S and Teamspeak 3 server
The only thing I can think on is that your Teamspeak server is still looking for the Netgear router. I am not too sure, but it may be looking for the MAC address of the Netgear. There may be a setting you can change. The only other thing I can suggest is that you reinstal the server with the DLink in place. I don't know how much trouble this would be.

I installed Teamspeak Server 2 with the D-Link in place and there is no installation required to run TS3 Server, all I did was download the executable to my Server and run it.
My server is for personal use not business and is setup for me to gain my MCITP certification.

Thanks for the help Guys and Girls, I have managed to get it sorted. Just for those who may have the same problem, I can't connect via the web address as the router will only alloow me to connect via my LAN.
Much appreciated

Re: D-Link DSL - 2640S and Teamspeak 3 server
I think you have run into the no NAT Loopback problem. Some routers support this but many more don't. Apart from changing the router the only other way is via the Hosts file. You will find some information on this here if you want to have a bash at it.
