Hm, what does it look like from the server's console window? Does it show you even connecting?

Nope it doesn't show any change at all.
and like I said... I tried it without the server even running and it gave me the same thing... no info and then I hit enter again and it tells me I'm already connected...
Really is confusing.
Ah weird... I got it working!
I use Comodo internet security and I closed it a while ago and so I figured it wouldn't be effecting anything... But then I had it running and it popped up a connection warning, so I clicked "allow" and now it's connected just fine. Very odd. But thanks for the help! I figured it was a user error, but I have no idea why it was blocking the app even though the process for the firewall was closed.
Yes, if you have access to the router settings port forwarding is quite easy. Basically you are opening a port (making a tunnel) through your router's firewall that lets data flow freely. By plugging into the modem directly, you can see if the problem is at your router's firewall. Afterward, you just reconnect the router and forward the ports in the router settings.
