Okay, here's what I've done. I've set up a team-speak 3 server, I've forwarded the ports, and it's hosted on my laptop which resides in my spare room. The server works fine when it's working, no problems what so ever, until for some random unknown reason, it decides to stop working. For some reason, when it's working, I can connect to my server via it's LAN IP, but when it stops working, I can only connect to it using my External IP, but my friends can't connect to it at all.
My friends all get a "Failed to connect to server" message and so do I if I try and connect through it's LAN IP. I've tried restarting my router, checking the ports, enabling DMZ and renewing my external IP address so that it's completely different but none of these worked permanently. The renewing IP address worked for a bit, and then it stopped working again after about 3 hours of up time. So did enabling DMZ. I have no idea what's triggering this and so far I've done all I can to stop it.
Could anyone help?
Perhaps your ISP is blocking some ports? Most do not allow people to host their own servers, if you read in the terms and conditions. Thats the only thing I can think of right now for such an intermittent connection.
Also what do you normally do which fixes it (apart from renewing IP)
What OS is the server running, what exact version of TS3 are you using?

It's only happened 4 times, first time fixed itself, second time I reset my IP, third time I enabled DMZ and the fourth time hasn't been fixed.

Laptop is win 7 ultimate 64 bit and the server is TS3 Server 64-bit 3.0.0-beta30

Is there a non-beta version you could try? (I don't know much about TS but it's common knowledge that if something isn't working and you're using a beta, switch to a stable version)

No
TS3 is in public beta
im not haveing any problems
make sure the server build is the new one and make sure the client is updated too
I've checked that my server is completely up to date and so is the client.
