Exorcet Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Today I tried logging into a few servers only to get a connection interrupted message. It happens immediately upon clicking join. I was fine just yesterday, and this issue seems to be server dependent. The 104th and 51st give me the error, some other server (I forgot which) did not and I connected fine. Any ideas on what's causing this?

Mustang Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Have you tried connecting with LAN speed setting? all the lower ADSL settings are troublesome at the moment.
Exorcet Posted January 21, 2013 Author Posted January 21, 2013 Have you tried connecting with LAN speed setting? all the lower ADSL settings are troublesome at the moment. I use a custom setting, though I tried all the ADSL and LAN settings before posting and it still did not work.

104th_Maverick Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Same thing has just started happening to me with the 51st server. Been able to fly in there no problems and was even in a few hours ago, now I get CI as soon as I try to connect. I'll let you know what I find out if/when I get it fixed Mav [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 104th Phoenix Wing Commander / Total Poser / Elitist / Hero / Chad www.104thPhoenix.com www.facebook.com/104thPhoenix My YouTube Channel
badger66 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Yep , I had that last night too ..... then tried again later and was getting lots of freezes ..... odd ?

joey45 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 The MS only finds the servers.. bit like Gamespy. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

104th_Maverick Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Update from my end.... I am now able to get in the 51st server no problems. Didn't change any files or anything at all, may have been a problem with the master server or something for a little while.

Exorcet Posted January 22, 2013 Author Posted January 22, 2013 (edited) I'll try logging in tonight. Things seem to be working now.

Sov13t Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I think what might be happening is that when DCS stops responding on the server machine, the Master Server might still see it online and keep it in the lists and thus cause a situation where a client is trying to connect to a frozen/crashed server. Unfortunately it is a bit hard to keep track of crashes/freezes as they often happen at an uncomfortable time. This is just an assumption...

Midnight Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) Oh man! It happens to me as well....I cant even connect to any open server. It was fine a while back. I guess there goes my online experience! That explains the 250 odd people viewing the forum and not playing the sim...mmmmmm Edited January 23, 2013 by Midnight

Daniel M Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 I'll randomly get the can not connect to a certain server for "a day" and then the next day(and for a while past that) no issue. (i'd agree with the earlier post that maybe the server semi-hangs but it still reporting a heartbeat to the master server) Not to speak for ED, but I'm pretty sure they've mentioned multiple times that they are working on fixing the net code in general with the next update: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=99109 3rd post
Midnight Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 I seem to have found one cause of this error, "MODS" If you have installed a mod chances are it is contributing to the error, I repaired install and all was well again. Give it a try.
