    and see if anything helps.
    Do you need help learning about patching the game, installing it, changing antivirus/firewall settings, changing network settings, learn how to use a computer, keeping your PC maintained and more?

    nothing helps...while I have downloaded the patch sucessfully when I try to put my log in both servers show no ping or status...anyone know how I could isolate the problem to networking or the computer itself. I live in a minor us territory that wouldn't be banned would it? Is there some place I could give my IP address and they could tell me if it was banned or not?

    Try opening your router port to 29000.

    Try bypassing your router and plug your computer directly into the cable or DSL broadband modem (NO DIAL-UP).

    What are the names of the servers that come up in the game for you?

    Check your security and/or anti-virus software to see if they are blocking the game's traffic.

    Did you try plugging directly in to the modem from your computer bypassing your router?

    it's could be that I'm in a dorm...I can't access the default gateway from my computer so I can't actually get into the router to open the port....although my laptop firewall settings would allow it...I'll probably have to contact the web admin, though I can't see the high probability of me convincing him to open a port just so I can play an MMO :eek:

    Yeah, good luck with that ;) Maybe tell the Admin that it is free to play and that they could join you online and play! :D
