Direct connection questions

[Link68759]

ok, I always have problems trying to set up a direct connection- i can never get it to work.

In a game, I try TCP/IP connections, but I guess the big problem is I don't know what IP to use.

I have a motorola modem, then a linksys router and my computer, all which have their own IP. entering my computer's Ip doesnt work, I now know because that's just the address in LAN... I have no idea what to do, someone show me a tutorial or explain it.

are you trying to connect to an IP over the INTERNET, or internally on the LAN?

mostly over the internet, but i did experience problems even on wlan... but I could probably figure it out if I worked at it. Just help me with over internet connections
