its probably a port forwarding issue. Make sure incoming packets on TCP port 3453 are sent to your iMac.

You need to do port fowarding if you have a Router, depending on what brand of DSL modem you have, it would have a built in firewall which you can edit in your DSL Modem Prefs Page.

My Modem had a list of like 200 applications under the "Open Port" menu, and one of them was Myth. Heh, that was quite a coincidence! Well, if Myth is not one of your choices, then you may have to setup a new application.
