Can´t connect traccar client on android. #176

Cheers,

the reason why I write on this platform is because I have a drawback with traccar client for android, the point is that we assign the IP address of the computer that hosts the server and port as well, but does not mark the position of device. I appreciate help me.

Are you sure the port is visible from internet? You can check here: https://www.traccar.org/port-check/

sistemaschevalier2016 commented 8 years ago

let me check if the port is open.. Thanks

sistemaschevalier2016 commented 8 years ago

anton, i created a new rule on the firewall for open the port 5055 on my computer but still showong port is closed. what can i do ?

tananaev commented 8 years ago

Are you sure your ISP provide you with public IP address?

sistemaschevalier2016 commented 8 years ago

the ip must be public ? what if is private ?

tananaev commented 8 years ago

If it's private, it means it's technically impossible for the Traccar Client app to connect to it.

sistemaschevalier2016 commented 8 years ago

but exists any possibility to make the app works?

tananaev commented 8 years ago

As I said, if you don't have a public IP address, it's not possible to host your own server.
