Hi guys! I understand what the problem is with my minecraft server hosting problems! Im trying to run a server from wifi thats connected to the main router upstairs. I dont have a router plugged into my computer. And I cannot get one. So my question is:

Can you run a server off Wifi? ANY way possible!!

Thanks a bunch!~

Google port-forwarding. It'll explain that.

It is possible to host off a wifi connection. If the connection is solid I dont see a problem if its not a large population server.

Set a STATIC ip on your computer
ex: if your routers IP is 192.168.1.1 and the ip 192.168.1.5 is free, use 192.168.1.5 as your computers IP, 255.255.255.0 as the subnet and 192.168.1.1 as the gateway.

Port forward port 25565 to your computers IP
ex: if your computer has the static IP of 192.168.1.5, put that as the host ip

http://portforward.com/ is a great resource for finding howto do port forwarding. I would also be glad to do something like a join.me session and guide you through it.
