are you remembering to type your server's port after the IP, if you're hosting on the same PC as you're playing on and you havent changed the port in settings.ini, try connecting to:
127.0.0.1:25565

Just re-read what you put, so you can connect on 127.0.0.1 but on your network IP it doesnt work? what OS are you running and do you have a firewall up?

OS means Operating System and you will need to make an exception in your firewall for port 25565
