Paladin Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Hello. For a few days now (since Sunday Night) i was not able to connect to EL. I am in a LAN with about 20 other computers and a static IP, and at least one other person is playing EL, he told me about it and our chars interact, whitch is normal since we are friends. But neither of us had ever used (too much) offensive language, and never did anything as stupid as blocking path etc. I'm not getting any message that i've been baned, but there's no firewall on my LAN, i've tried to disable mine and my friend can't log either. We have tried port 2001 and we are able to log to the exp server (hope this didn't reset our chars), but on the normal one we just get Can't connect to server. Please tell me the reason of banning the IP, or sugest other reasons for not beeing able to connect. My char in the game is also buze. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paladin Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Oh, and my e-mail is a_buze@yahoo.com, in case someone wants to sugest me other reasons why i can't connect and what can we do about it. I'm sorry if this isn't exactly on the topic and i have not been baned. If the ip has been banned, i'm also very sorry, and if you tell us what we did we promise not to do it again, ok?

Cicero Report post Posted June 29, 2004 If you don't get a message stating that you have been banned, then you haven't. However, if you're not banned, it is very odd that you can connect to 2001 and not 2000 . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Platyna Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Maybe try telnet to ternal-lands.solexine.fr port 2000 if you see connection timed out or connection refused that means THERE IS firewall in your LAN and the admin have cut these ports on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paladin Report post Posted June 29, 2004 Ok, sorry to bother you again,wrong topic and all, but i've tried ping eternal-lands.solexine.fr -t, and it works ok. If i write port 2000 (before or after the -t) nothing happens, the windows closes without any error messages, what is the syntax pls? And the guy that poses for network admin sweared earliear that port 2000 is open, but i don't think that he even knowes what that is. Can i try anything else? Thanks.

Leeloo Report post Posted June 30, 2004 You cannot ping a port. Try telnet as teh banned 0n3na suggested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jolly Report post Posted June 30, 2004 telnet 62.93.225.26 2000 should do it. If you get connect failed then it is a firewall blocking most likely /Jolly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That you can ping machine not means you will be able to connect to it using particular port if you want an explanation, here is it: If you ping machine you are sending to it kind of packets called ICMP, if you are connecting to some port of machine you are sending TCP or UDP packets - using firewall you can cut every kind of internet packets so try TELNET instead of PING.
