I don't use a router -- my computer is hooked up straight to my cable modem which is connected to the wall jack.

Edit: Connecting to port 60001 worked. Why doesn't Gamespy show that port as the one being used?

Anyone having the same problem? I can't connect to NS4, although I can see it on the list under PW:Action. Weird. I'm getting everytime: server not responding. Any solution out there?

Thanks

Edit: K, trying port 60001 worked for me. Will try to play a bit, have fun.

This is getting more and more strange... this morning I directly connected for the first time in about 4 days using the following IP and Port:

nwmain.exe +connect 70.191.163.120:60001

However, now I can't connect using that anymore... What is the deal with this crap?

try switching back to the 5121....something could be up to throw it back and forth to you.

Perhaps try the following as it is a bit strange:

1. Open a command prompt box - go start > run > type: cmd
2. Type: ipconfig /flushdns
3. Type: ipconfig /registerdns

see if that helps any.

That doesn't work...

It's a problem with the NWN client, it seems to get confused when the server's IP stays the same but the port changes. On my listing of recently connected sites (NOW) I have both NS4's, one with the 5121 port and the 60001 one below it, but when I was having the 'time out' problem after the port changed, I only had the 5121 in the history/favorites so the client seemed to get confused and think i wanted to connect to the port that I had before.

From My nwnplayer.ini file:

Code: Select all

Server17=70.191.163.120:5121
Server18=70.191.163.120:60001

PERHAPS there could be a fix to this, by opening your nwnplayer.ini file and remove all the server numbers:ports from the [History Page] and [Favorites Page] sections...

ie:

Server0=123.123.123.123:1234
Server1=45.45.45.45.5121

change to:

Server0=
Server1=

etc...
