Title: Apologies, connection problems
Post by: Nuclear Catastrophe on April 23, 2009, 04:39:10 PM
As the topic suggests, my 3G connection isn't letting me play or DM on the server any more for some reason or other.

What this means is that anything I have done for people story wise or character wise lately will not progress further as it normally would.

Sorry :(

A dissapointment, as always.

Come back soon! Have you tried tweaking the ports or calling your provider?

We miss you NC, why don't you ley us know what the trouble is? We have a lot of computer doods here, surely one of us can help?

Connection issues aren't really my bag...but I know we got some good guys here!

Somebody here has to be able to help somehow.  I mean, as has been said, we got some sick computer geeks about.

I don't know how to change ports or whatever, so that may be worth a shot (if someone can be bothered PMing me the details of how to go about it - free quest if you do and it works x) but I'll stick the details here, and have a try later on.

Understand before helping that NwN works fine for me on broadband, and has in the past ran perfectly fine using mobile-3G too.

A rundown of what's happening -

I can connect to IRC
I can log in to gamespy (though it takes a little longer than usual)
I can see a breakdown of every server in the PW story list
when I try to enter as a player or a DM, it times out every time.
I cannot see any servers on the 'favourites' or 'history' list.
I cannot direct-connect

As I said, it simply times out.  It's worked in the past.  Maybe something I installed has affected it negatively, or a patch or update from windows... but I can't pinpoint what it might have been.
