Client can't connect

Recommended Posts

Hi.

 

I was looking through the forum and it seems that others have seen similar errors. I chose to start a new, since I thought it might be the best in here.

 

I have not been able to log on for about half a year now. It seems not to be able to connect. It hangs when loading at the 'connecting to server' message. Main log is here: http://pastebin.com/Bg7b2LsS .

 

Initially I thought it could be a port problem, but as I said I saw other similar errors in here, so I hope it can be solved easily.

 

Regards, Zilvador.

I should mention that by 'similar errors' I do not mean the same errors, but only that the first lines of the output is the same, though I suspecct that it is not necessarily related. I have not found the same error or been helped by the advice given in the other threads.

These 'errors' are glitches in the client everyone got them but it still works.

The first lines are about outdated options in the ini which are no longer used and the last about unused options in a sound config file.

 

They got nothing to do with your problem, probably port 2000 is blocked by your firewall or ISP.

Thank you for answering.

 

I have just talked with my ISP, who confirms that there is nothing that should keep me from connecting on port 2000.

 

I also tried making a clean install, deleting the configuration and log directory, but it is the same.

 

Regards, Zilvador.

Well the IP you are posting from is not banned.

I haven't seen Zilvador on since July. (Zilvador not locked or banned or anything either).

As far as I can tell, you aren't even reaching the server.

Thank you all for your answers. It seems that I found the reason for the trouble.

 

The network has a Cisco Skinny service installed for IP phones. The protocol uses port 2000 just like Eternal Lands. It actually seems that port 2000 has been globally reserved for this purpose. Unfortunate, since both EL and Skinny cannot be active at the same time.
