I'm assuming you mean using OpenTTD for multiplauer, as TTDXL only really supported LAN.

firewall deactivated / set up correctly ? other security tools ? it has to work. on my computer, i just forwarded the ports in the fritz-box to my PC, started openttd, setup the server as an INTERNET (not LAN) server, and go.
