i try to write simple messenger look like it's example in book(Java How To Program 9th Edition Paul Deitel Harvey Deitel, part 27.6). after i finished , i try to test it. it work on localhost(127.0.0.1), also work on computer which connect same modem (i mean ips such 192.168.0.1 and etc) but when i want to test it on some computer cross the internet a client side code got connection refused error. i think when i client(which is my friend in somewhere in my city) try to connect server(which is me, again some where in city), when he enter my ip to connect me he connect to my modem and my modem don't send it's information to me(it's hard to explain something that u can't deeply understand it in none mother language so i'm sorry at all ) any help is important to me.
here is server code
