Connection problem

Well, I made a chat-like program in order to familiarize myself with basic networking in Java, but I cannot connect to my computer from another.

My program works when I have the server and clients on my computer, but when I move to another computer and try to connect, it just won't. I am sure I'm not trying to connect to the local host on each client, and I connect to my IP instead... and that is where my problem is. When I check for my IP on my computer, checkign the connection info, it has a different IP from when I go to a website, such as whatsmyip.org. I tried getting the client on the other computer to connect to the server on this one using both IPs, and neither worked. I don't have any firewalls or anything like that on either.

Thanks in advance,

Luis

Are you able to connect to your chat program using say telnet?If no then you have problems with communication or with server part.If yes the you have problems with client part of your chat.
