Was it working previously? If so, was a router used then?

Did anything else change like the local IP address? Send me your URL and I'll try to connect.

I got in no problem and created an account. It said it sent me an email val code although that hasn't arrived yet. But there's nothing wrong with your connection.

Are you inside your own network? If so, try connecting to your local IP + file port.

That did it ... Thanks.

So on the old router also inside my own network I connected via Internet IP for over a year?

Is it because the there might be a different setting in the router?
