can't connect to several private servers

[ThePrinter]

ey guys,

I have a little problem with connecting to some private servers. This could be because I had a new router installed yesterday but I did had this problem with one server before I chanced router.

First of all:
- sorry for my english; pls ask if something is unclear
- I am a noob in computer things, if you want to help me, try to be clear :D

For instance I can connect to all server who are listed in my server list.
+ hlin 5999
+ hlin 6999

But commands like:
/connect hlin.woop.us 7999 match
/connect hlin.woop.us 8999 match
/connect hlin.woop.us 9999 match
/connect uk.myys.tk 7999 match
/connect uk.myys.tk 8999 match
/connect uk.myys.tk 9999 match

give this error:


what I did:
- update my AC
- restart AC
- used other computer
- use another nickname
- restart my router

nothing worked.
Maybe it has something todo with my IP? or my Internet?

idk. macm tried to help me but we didnt find the solution.
Pls guys help this poor guy :3


Thanks!

Well, I noticed that your IP is included in =SA='s whitelist. However, you supplied one IP as opposed to a range. Check your IP and make sure it is the same as the one that is on =SA= whitelist.

Also, the screenshot you uploaded doesn't work. Edit your post if you can and try and get that to work. The screenshot might help someone figure it out.

Firewall problem maybe? Do you have it activated?

[ThePrinter]

Ss works now?

And yeah its not the ip cause then i would be able to connect with other nickname

And about firewall: i will try that in the morning ( onipodnow)
But its weird my firewall let me acces hlin 6 but not hlin 9

what about now?

what about now?

ok .We can see src now.
...
Try connecting ester servers with a common nickname: like "painter" ....
Can you connect to them all? What have problem?

Now try to connect these same servers with your tag and nickname.
Unable to connect at all? What have problems? post here.

[Frogulis]

able to connect with other nickname

So if you changed your nick it suddenly started working?

[#M|A#Wolf]

wat? if it's that then your name is simply not allowed for some reason. contact the server owner.

[ThePrinter]

Nono.

I tried to chance my name but it didnt work.

Im maybe stupid but not that stupid :D


So i cant connect WHATEVER my nick

Macm went for me in a server and I searched him. He was unfindable. It looks like these servers just dont excist for my AC. thats why I reinstalled it. But I got the same error.

[tempest]

I think this might be a problem with DNS resolving. What happens if you try

[SELECT ALL] Code:

/connect 37.59.117.159 7999 match

instead? (that's the IP for hlin.woop.us)

[ThePrinter]

:(
But thanks for the idea.

[RCJD]

Poor ThePrinter ):

Solution: Move in to my home in Canada? AC ALL DAY YAYYY

ontopic:

Have you tried some of the American servers? Have you tried connecting from another computer outside of your home? (If it works elsewhere, then obviously it's something with your internet connection and nothing to do with your nick. I guess we found that out already though).

[1Cap]

Do you have antivirus?
" firewall program?
Operation System?

If you want a can do a TeamV;

[ThePrinter]

The problem is... ( i feel embarased xD)

Its my dads laptop. I dont have admin. i cant do aything aboutfirewall.

But why can I connect some of the hlin and not all of them?

Who owns hlin? Which w00p can I contact??

[RCJD]

ThePrinter got on ny.dyhclan.org 4444 match successfully today.

Strange strange strangeeeeeeeeee

[DES|Anderson]

I suspect different ports are used on the ones he can connect to. To fix the problem exceptions need to be created in the firewall for the servers using the blocked ports.

[#M|A#Wolf]

Have you already tried to momentarily turn off your firewall and try to connect?

[D1551D3N7]

Its my dads laptop. I dont have admin. i cant do aything aboutfirewall.

heh??

sorry Andy but do I need to create those exeptions or does the serverowner need to do this?

and how can this be done?


And I wil try to get the firewall down. and then retry. when my pa gets home

[DES|Anderson]

They are created in the router, but reading further back it seems you do not have access. I am very much afraid that without it the firewall will block those and very little can be don about it. Have you confirmed its def the firewall, maybe by taking the laptop elsewhere and trying with a different router?

[ThePrinter]

No I have not confirmed that. Maybe it's my ip-adres?

I'm kinda busy these days but if I see a chance ill check it somewhere else!

[RCJD]

I'm no computer guy... is this what needs to be done?

[Ronald_Reagan]

Port forwarding wouldn't need to be done in the case of one client not being able to connect. If no one can connect, it might be indicative of some error with ports being forwarded.

[ThePrinter]

You are saying I should try out another AC client?
Personally I dont think thats it. Cause: I also cant connect to BoB and w00p teamspeak.
This afternoon ill try forwarding the ports. Lets hope it works.

[vonunov]

Please press Windows key + R, type 'cmd', enter 'tracert 37.59.117.159', and post results.

[ThePrinter]

This is what I get:




I put a stroke through my IP.


and for translation (dutchcomputer)

3th line: Tracing the route to woop.us
4th line: Through maximum 30 'hops'


Then several times: Time-out with command
Then on the one before the last line: The trace has been completed.

What does this mean? I'm a noob in this -,-

[vonunov]

It looks like your connection is making it past your own router (192.168.1.1), which probably means that it isn't a problem with your firewall or any such thing. Then it reaches your ISP, after which it meets with a considerable delay before going further. It is probably during this time that the connection times out in AssaultCube. This means it could be an issue outside of your control.

I'm not sure, though. Maybe the second hop represents your ISP's modem (computer -> your router -> ISP modem -> internet), so you should try connecting directly to the ISP's modem via ethernet cable, log in to the admin interface on it, and disable its firewall. Your own router will have a firewall, so having one on the ISP's modem is unnecessary, and I find that the firewalls on those modems tend to cause trouble.

Windows key + R, 'cmd', and type: ipconfig

Find the "Default Gateway" beneath "Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection"

Browse to that IP address in your web browser. You will probably have to log in. The password might be on the modem's label, or else you will have to Google for "[modem brand] [model number] default password".
