Yes that is correct. Both times I was in the game (as local), I had the same EP5 client files on the EP3 server. However, if this could be the problem, I can always re-install Shaiya and not do any updating. I have the Installer from EP3, and the actual Shaiya Directory already updated (I just install Shaiya, then replace the directory).

When I found out that no-one else could log into my server, I thought it was something to do with the IP. So I went to whatsmyip.org copied the IP that was found as my IP and pasted the Server Manager, .INI files, SQL and in the game.exe. I restarted both SQL and Server Manager but when I re-opened Server Manager, there were red X's instead of the Paused state - which it was before I changed IP.

When I went to portforward.com I couldn't see my modem at all.. Although I am using a wireless USB lol ... I am guessing either, forwarding router ports is not needed, or you cannot do this on a Wireless net.
Thanks Kali
EDITED
So now I have managed to work out why it wasn't working.
I guess changing the values in the Service Manager then the .INI files, is a big nono. I changed only .INI files to my IP address, and the server is still Paused.
But now another error :(
When I log on I click which faction I want (Light) click OK (on 3 other windows) then as the screen dims to go to the character page, it just exits the game instead.
No idea why its doing this, I done the exact same things as I did last times when it did work whilst on local. Any ideas please guys?
Thanks in advance
