    Heres Bleurens HowTo for Norton Internet Security, hope it helps a little bit.

     

    http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=25559

     

    For more Windows related help, how to allow ports, maybe someone else has any idea? (i use windows very seldom, so im out of ideas)

    Maybe a typo in some configuration?

     

    Like allowing port 200 or 20000 instead of 2000?

     

    Lets see if you can reach the test server. Type

     

    telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2001

     

    and i bet you will see a short message which says "Test server".

    Indeed, i saw test server with some random characters after that. Ok so how would i change which port i allow?

    Open a dos box and type

     

    telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2000

     

    What do you see?

     

    Piper

    It tries to connect, and then the screen goes black. the same happens with the green leaf one unfortunatly.

     

    Okay, so you have a general problem with port 2000.

     

    You are sure, you have the firewall disabled?

     

    Are using a router to connect to the internet?

     

    Any kind of network which may block port 2000?

     

    Piper

    Hmm i connect through a laptop right next to my cpu xD I use a 3g card[but i only get gprs in this back water town i live in], both computers use norton, both have el as an ok thing, and the ip adress is all set up, also they both have the fire wall disabled >.> I dont know what else to say

    I just posted in your Greetings topic (and removed it there :P):

     

    If you haven't been playing for a while, you probably still have the old server address in el.ini (we changed to another game server 3 months ago).

    Find el.ini (most likely it's C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\el.ini on Windows, or ~/.elc/el.ini on Linux), and edit the server_address line to this:

    #server_address = "game.eternal-lands.com"

    Does this solve it?

     

    Err... No. It seems to be a port 2000 error, and i have my fire wall disabled!

     

    My ini is.
