So you were able to click Start without getting an error previously on that same computer?
Can I unistall and install on a different computer?
Yes, just remember to match the Local IP with your router's port forwarding.

Need to figure out what changed since then. Try using different values for "File Port" and "Packet Port". Keeping them consecutive makes the router settings easier (e.g., 80 and 81, 9087 and 9088, etc.). Try that just to see if you can click Start without getting the socket error. If that works then change your router settings to match.

So thnk I got it. Went through all the steps again. So apparently i just disable firewall n anti virus protection n it worked. Which I dont get because the poker maven software was allowed. So now how can I keep my protection and run the program. I just saw it was in the directory listing under "privite"

What's the name of your anti-virus program?

Have someone on the outside check for you (I can if you go back online). Whether or not you can connect to your own internet IP depends on if your router supports NAT loopback.

Nevermind, I see "Flop House" in the public listing but cannot connect. So your port forwarding is not correct. Double-check everything:

Look at "Local IP address" and make sure the 192.168.xxx.xxx number matches the router port forwarding.
Use the Lookup button again on the "Internet IP address" setting and make sure that hasn't changed.
Make sure File Port and Packet Port are still 8087 and 8088 and that matches the ranges in the router.
