may be you are behind a router or proxy or whatever then your external ip is actually the network device connected to the internet. this device may probably be tuned for NAT or port forwarding... I 'm not sure this your issue but it could be. it is for sure a network config issue because the port is open (since you can connect interenally.) and firewall is disabled. good luck

Hello everyone.

I have made a socket server on one of my lan computer and I made a socket client on other lan computer. When I try to access the server socket using the computer External IP it gives me an error: (10061, 'Connection refused'). If I use it's internal ip the connection is accepted... I think that I am not able to connect to any computer outside my lan because the program only checks for Internal IPs how can I change that?

P.S. I already disabled my firewall. The socket server is binded to: s.bind(('0.0.0.0.',1236)).

Thanks and Regards
