NAT and DCC Chat settings

Hi

My bot is running on my PC, and i have discovered a slight problem that i cannot fix.

the LAN address is 192.168.123.100 and the external is for arguements sake 80.80.80.80. I set:

nat-ip 80.80.80.80, and my-ip ""

And i cannot initiate DCC Chat or get files by DCC Recieve from her

if i set

nat-ip 192.168.123.100

Then i can connect with her, but no one else can

nat-ip 192.168.123.254 is where the router and my NAT sits

No one can connect.

I have the DMZ and virtual servering set up on the router so this shouldnt be a problem, its just sorting out these damn ips. How can i do this?

If you want to chat with bot, you need to open ports on router (nat, special applications...).You must open port which you have set in mIRC for dcc

I have this PC set in the DMZ of the router. Theoretically the ports should be happily open
