Rabbitman Report post Posted May 27, 2011 Hello all. I just reinstalled EL after about six months off and wanted to play again. Sadly it will not connect. It gets stuck at the loading screen with the last line of text saying "Connecting to Server..." I have let it sit for more than fifteen minutes on multiple occasions but it never connects nor does it say that the connection fails. Attempting to troubleshoot the problem myself, I used telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2000 and ping game.eternal-lands.com in command prompt. Telnet results in a blank background until it eventually brings up the native directory (no welcome message). The ping command times out 4/4 attempts. Both results are the same when I temporarily turn off my firewall. Any ideas? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rabbitman Report post Posted May 27, 2011 I spoke with the IT department at the university I attend and they have worked out the issues. Thank you for your help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
