I have been running a bukkit server for a few months now and it has been running fine.
Recently, i switched from an ethernet connection to a wireless connection (which has good connection) and my server will not let people (including me) join, giving the error message of "Connection timed out: connect" on minecraft. The server says it is running perfectly yet clearly it isnt. I have tried redownloading and programming the server again, but i have no idea what is wrong.
If anyone has any help to offer, it would be great.

i found it, just in case anyone has ths problem in the future.

it was the port forwarding.
apparently 192.168.1.1 had the wrong ip address for my computer (it might have changed when i switched from Ethernet to wireless).
i used portforward.com's static ip program to find my acual ip adress and forwarded that port to make it work

I guess you already restarted your computer?

My theory is that if you re-downloaded bukkit,some of your plugins(if u have any)might have been messed up cause they werent up-to date.That can cause the server to crash,or several other things like not players connect,spzzing out certain blocks...
