Connection Problems on 3G

Postby Drum8888 » Tue Dec 06, 2011 4:58 pm

I have been having problems connecting to my server via 3G but not Wi-Fi.

When using Wi-Fi I can connect fine and everything runs perfectly but when I switch to 3G on my phone (Samsung Galaxy S2) and try to connect to the server it comes back with "Wrong username or password." even though I just connected with that same username and password seconds before. I have tested the subsonic demo server via 3G and the connection works fine however mine doesn't.

I have noticed one thing however, when I connect to my server via a web browser on the phone (with http://myname.subsonic.org) it will complete the address bar with my localhost address (192.186) if I use Wi-Fi, but it will complete the address with my actual IP address (90.219 etc) if I try to connect with 3G. Also I can use my normal username and password on the website from Wi-Fi this way but the username and password doesn't work on the redirected 3G address.

Finally, this is not as far as I know a network problem with our router as I have a friend living with me who has set up subsonic on his phone (HTC Desire) and it works perfectly on both Wi-Fi and 3G for him.

If anyone can provide advice it would be welcomed, thanks. :D

I found a solution to the problem.

I changed the port to 8080 saved, then changed it back to 80 with the router forwarding option still selected and restarted the server and it works on 3G now! :D
