Getting connected to lobby
« on: August 16, 2008, 02:53:51 pm »

I can't seem to get into the GTL lobby.

Yesterday and today.

Was there something I missed?

Mmmm. I am wondering if it is because I had installed that app to connect when the servers were down. I did uninstall it, turned my firewall off (back on now  ;) ) still no luck. Gonna see if a box reboot will help.


Edit: Well that didn't help. Guess it's another re-install. Man this gets tiring :-|

   I was looking in the .plr file. When I was trying out the app I had to put in a ip number. Perhaps it's got the wrong address.

 If you can get in and don't mind, could you check your plr and see what it is. PM if you don't want to post.

Thanks Eh
     :)

Getting surer the ip in the Host: is SJ's, but I don't know the original.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that one of these connection mods alters the host file... you may wanna check that out...

Going to check that as I did a new install and it can't connect either.

 :?:



Edit: Mine says "127.0.0.1 localhost www.gtl-server.net "

Right now I have no idea if that's right. lol

Best lead I got though.....Thanks Buds
