Hello. My first post here, so excuse me of i'm violating any forum decorum.
Basically, I am unable to connect to any server. None of the servers show up in the game list. It sits there at "Connecting to game server". I briefly saw a server list once, but upon trying to connect to it, it said "server is taking longer then expected" and nothing happened.
Yes, I have tried it with my firewall turned off (I have it set to allow all traffic for freelancer.exe anyway)
Yes, I have tried it with my AV turned off
Yes, I have tried it with both turned off.
Yes, I am behind a router - the router's firewall is off. I have ports 2300-2801 open on both TCP/UDP.
Yes, Vanilla Freelancer doesn't work either
Yes, I have become slightly frustrated by this. :D
I've tried running a tracert to one of the servers (the USA discovery one) and it ran fine. No dead hops in the path or anything unusual.
Oh, computer specs:
3ghz dual core, 2gb ram, windows xp SP3,
Firewall is COMODO, AV is Avast!
