londo 1 Posted January 11, 2013 hi there, I have a question and maybe someone here can help me find a solution cuz I miss the forest for the trees;-) following situation at home I use a highspeed connection everything works fine, any server I wanna join works. but, I'm off for the week and have to use a connection stick, no problem so far. with the connection stick I can only join half the server! I find all server at the server list but when it comes to join them I run into an error. right after clicking "join" the window gonna be black and says "lauch game" after a couple sec. the window closes and a message appears "connection lost". It has to be a config problem on the server side. cuz it also happens on my own server. there's nothing at the log files not even that I tried to join the server. somehow it must deny my request any earlier. could a minping/battleye or any other server config cause this?

What do you mean with "off" ? If you are using the wlan of some hotel, they probably blocked some ports the game need to communicate with the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
londo 1 Posted January 19, 2013 What do you mean with "off" ? If you are using the wlan of some hotel, they probably blocked some ports the game need to communicate with the server. hi there, no I don't use a hotel's wlan. I have a mobile stick to connect. somehow I ran into the same problem at home lately. I ran a network sniffer to find the error. and after analyzing the protocol I find out that sometimes Port 2302 is not reachable. it's kinda weird, sometimes it says the server port 2302 is not reachable and sometimes it says the client port is not reachable. I turned my local firewall off but the same error occurs. I also checked the server side. the funny thing is, when I do a restart of my computer I can join the affected server occasionally.

SavageCDN 231 Posted January 22, 2013 My guess would be your mobile stick provider blocks some ports but not on a consistent basis? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
