Game Help / Re: IP address+Connection=Uh oh

I'll try to explain.
Your PC IP----> internet ----> FH Server
Normally thats how it works a nice simple connection the server sees your IP
What I believe is happening
When you connect with the exe I released
Your PC IP----> internet ----> FH Server
Still nice and normal
But when you connect to the website
Your PC IP----> Internet Providers Internal Proxy IP ---> internet ----> FH Server
Now the FH Server sees the IP of your internet providers proxy not your actual IP.
Because they don't match you can't connect.
Hope that explains...
