I’ve got several rootservers and tried to move my TeamSpeak 3.0 server from one server to another. Everything seemed to work fine and I could access my server just fine, but unfortunately the server was inaccessible via the internet.

The new rootserver was a Windows Server 2008 R2 and so I was like: Oh yeah let’s disable them firewallz, so I just headed over to the search box, typed “Windows Firewall” and selected the one which was called Windows-Firewall (not the one with extendet security) and disabled it for testing purposes.

However, it still didn’t work. But I wanted to TeamSpeak so bad. So I went to the adapter settings for my ethernet adapter and disabled IPv6 (well I hardly used that shit anyway since my server’s public addresses are IPv4 addresses).

I tried to connect and yet again, it just failed for unknown reasons. I couldn’t access my beloved TeamSpeak server and the situation started to piss me off. But after browsing the internet for a while I finally managed to find a working solution. Since my server has got multiple IP addresses I had to manually specify the one TeamSpeak should bind to. This can be acomplished by starting the server like this:

ts3server_win32.exe voice_ip=176.58.xxx.xxx

Magically everything worked flawless after launching it with this startup parameter (replace the IP address with your own public IP).
