I want to connect using telnet to my computer. however when I tried that its giving me error 111. the server works when im doing

however
telnet 159.65.233.178 12345

well this is kind of different
you cant really connect to your own pc without port forwarding
not using a public ip anyway

other people wont be able to connect unless theyre using the same wifi
