Raz Report post Posted February 18, 2015 pretty certain port 2000 is blocked... Either that or the IP you use is blocked Open a command prompt (CMD) and try telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2000 telnet game.eternal-lands.com 2001 Chances are 2000 will not connect - but 2001 will - that's the test server. If that's the case you need to speak to your internet provider to unblock the port or use a proxy service - eg learners - but that's chargable Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maxine Report post Posted February 24, 2015 ping shows IP for game server as 192.99.21.222 When I use telnet I get the same result as Raz, seems you are not connecting to the game server Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hatwood Report post Posted February 25, 2015 I think there are websites (easily googled) to test if port x is working correctly. I would call your isp... I've heard of that port being blocked before, IIRC, by a university.I have the same result as maxine and raz, server is at 192.99.21.222, ping is ~60ms (not in Europe). Good luck.

revi Report post Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) Could you provide a traceroute to game.eternal-lands.com?That perhaps would show where things run off the rails.FYI, I get the typical message for banned IP:> telnet 192.99.21.222 2000Trying 192.99.21.222...Connected to 192.99.21.222.Escape character is '^]'.�Your IP is banned. That means that you, or someone from your IP did something very nasty, so we had to block this IP address. If you believe this ban was unjustified, or promise to respect the rules from now on, please post in the Bans section of our forums (on www.eternal-lands.com)G�Welcome to the new server! Please report any problems on channel 6.<�a��Connection closed by foreign host.So if you get nothing, it looks like the problem is somewhere between you and the game server.One thing you could try:add a line to your servers.lst file: eu-main main eu.other-life.com 2001 Learner eu proxy then start EL with "eu-main" as server name (as if you want to connect to the test server, but replace the "test" by "eu-main")Note that the port 2001 in that line is not a typo! This will use Learner's European proxy, providing a different path to the server.Unfortunately, unless things have changed, that proxy could shut down at the end of the month(Oh, and btw: don't be so quick to say "my ports are open": your firewall/router/whatever may have all outgoing ports open,but that's only the start. Your connections pass through several routers under your ISP's control, each of which can have port 2000 closed...And note that there's no reason to have any incoming ports open on your end, EL doesn' initiate connections) Edited February 25, 2015 by revi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
