Here is the problem:

My computer is behind a LAN, so it has a local IP.
I have a client program that connects to a server program
using the Socket class. Using a PrintWriter, I can successfully
send data down the socket to the server, but the client cannot
receive data, it's a one-way street. I am trying to get data using
a BufferedReader which is connected to the Socket's input stream.
If I test my client program on a machine that has a internet visible IP,
it works perfectly. Do you know of any way that I can get the client
to get data from the server? Since I've already established a connection,
I was hoping that there was some way to do it.

Thanks,
Shaun
