How do you mean stuck? Will the router not accept the settings, can you not connect with those setting or what? Have you tried setting protocol to TCP/UDP?

As the other settings seem to be consistent with what is required, have you tried the different options (like TCP/UDP) in the Protocol drop-down?

Only needs to be TCP, UDP isn't used by SimSig.

Is your firewall allowing connections for SimSig?

I'm still not clear exactly where you're getting stuck. So you enter the details like in your first picture and you hit "Ok". What happens? In the background of that picture it looks like there is an entry, perhaps done previously, or perhaps updates as you type. Your second picture shows an empty list. So does it accept your entry and place it in that list?

If that is okay, what happens when you run a simulation, ensure you tick "enable" under "Run a SimSig server", and then try to connect a client simulation to it?

If you can let everyone know how you resolved things it may help someone else who has the same problem in the future.

Which of the settings are different to those in your screen grabs then, please?
