3. Firewall [router or software] blocking
4. ISP

Also, if you are connecting in-network, make sure you have your internal IP set to static. To do so, use:

Start>Control Panel>Network Connections>Right click on your connection>Properties>Double Click TCP/IP from the list>Set Manually

[These settings can differ between routers, the following configuration is mine]
IP Address: 192.168.1.105
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1

Primary DNS: 4.2.2.2
Alt DNS: 4.2.2.1
you live like an hour from me, i'll bring you my laptop and you can show me how to do this lol jk

but on a real note, i've done all this and it still isn't working
