The server may be down. Check http://planeshift.fragnetics.com for its status.

Also, we reccomend you have at least 256mb RAM to run PS. You may need more with certain Radeon graphics cards (PS doesn\'t like them for some reason). General lag, however, is normal. Most people suffer heavy lag at times due to poor netcode on the client\'s part. That\'s not your fault, so don\'t worry. :)

Dallandra, another reason might be that the updater can not connect through a proxy server.
There is a Belgian cable provider that routs all it\'s traffic through a proxy...  X(

256mb is tiny these days. Most new systems have 1gb (1000mb) of RAM.

Allow UDP traffic from port 13331 on your firewall. That should do the trick. ;)

It will still work fine on 128Mb on some systems as long as the load is minimised (Like mine, lucky me). The General feeling though at the moment seems to be the more RAM the better.
I have returned!!
