Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Re: Multiple network selection from client???

/data/servers.xml file checks out o.k. Confirmed with my isp that port 7777 is not blocked. Confirmed latency error. Not possible to correct error. Thanks to everyone for their input.

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Re: Multiple network selection from client? Latency Issues?
« on: December 21, 2006, 08:10:15 pm »
I disconnected everything, disabled all network connections except my modem and rebooted. Now the client causes modem activity when loading but still shows server failure. Apparently PS has a network connection preference. Much like some of the other online RPG's there should be a network setup feature to allow changes or a "copy internet settings from Explorer?" button. Now I think the problem is either the server is genuinely down or the latency is somehow interfering. The updater's "Check game server"  reports "Server didn't respond". Used a web utility to get this address for laanx.fragnetics.com "210.193.49.103" Used same utility and got a 907ms ping time.  Used windows XP ping utility and got success with an average round trip of 855ms. Is this beyond the parameters of the PS connection system?

Yeah the satelite modems often have accelerator software. The ethernet connection is actually just a preference, but seeing as how the modem can't connect directly to the router, I ended up with the above configuration. Also since my router is a wireless access point, I like to avoid any direct wireless route to internet path. I live in a rural area where modems can't get over about 15k and DSL is just not ever going to happen. Mayby I'll have to upgrade my modem to a dedicated server model.

Ah here is where it get's tricky, my router does not go to the internet, it only goes to my home network. My modem is direct connected through USB, I've had other programs do this "misguessing" on connections before. My main PC is the one I'm trying to connect with, all other pc's are off at the moment. Does XP give it's connections a hidden priority?  Possibly my latency is so high that the client just plain gives up before recieving what it needs to confirm/deny the server status.

I can connect via IE, mozilla, etc. to the server site and pinging works fine. When the client loads my router to my home network blinks but not my satelite modem. The updater seemed to have no problem however. It shows server failure, but there is no transmit/receive activity on my modem which means it never tried?

I installed version 0.3.017 today and can't login at all. Registration worked fine for both the server and here. My modem shows absolutely NO activity when the client is loaded. I have no firewalls and meet the system requirement. It appears the client is trying to use the wrong network connection to reach the internet. It appears to try my home network and not my internet connection. Is there a way to specify which connection to use?
