I can't seem to connect to multiplayer now, all my ports and stuff are correct but I don't know why. The I.P is right. Any suggestions.

Probably your firewall! For some reason FS only likes MS firewalls (like the standard XP one) not others Wink

People are on it? Than that is probably the problem. Maybe one of them did not open his/her ports and is blocking you. Happens every time. Just live with it.

Strangest thing is that I also fly a lot on WSPilots servers. Never had this problem overthere.

Crash,

I used to fly ther a lot too.  (N100JB)... and I saw it as a problem there a LOT.  But they got VERY aggressive about the problem,.. the site admin dfrequently did port scans, and so on.  But is WAS a problem there too.  They also required passwords for certain sessions.

best,
