9.JG27 DavidRed Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 hey guys!sorry for double post but this is a BIG problem for me. i realised, that my favorite server doesnt show up in the server list anymore, while all others do fine. its up and running according to the host of the server, but i just cant see it in the list.others can see it though and can join. i can connect to the other servers though. i run the same dcs version as the server.in my desperation, i also tried to revert back to 125 to see whether this problem is related to the last 126 update, because i joined the server the last time before the last 126 update. but unfortunately even with 125 on my machine i have the same problem. anybody any clue?i could see it and connect to it without a problem before. please help me thx in advance
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 ok this is weird.... now in my desperation, i reverted back to 125 to see whether my problem is connected to the last update to 126...well the issue remained... i then remembered, that on weekend i installed some windows updates... so i uninstalled some updates regarding netframework, and some for windows internetexplorer9.... now after a restart, i suddenly could see the server again... ok so now im re-updating back to the latest 126 version and will report back...

Winfield_Gold Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 maybe the server has been taken down.....
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted October 30, 2013 Author Posted October 30, 2013 no it wasnt...i talked to the server-host who is a squad member of mine...i didnt see the server for the last three days, looking into the multiplayer list a couple of times a day... today i asked him whether the server has any problems or is down, but to my surprise he told me that the server is up and running all the time... other people could see and join the server, while for me it was invisible...i also couldnt connect via direct ip.
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted November 10, 2013 Author Posted November 10, 2013 ok the problem is back again, and this time i havent changed anything on my rig.....this is a serious problem/bug. i know that the server is online while i cant see it....but of course i dont know whether there are other servers as well online which i cant see.... maybe im not the only one affected by it, but most wouldnt even notice that they cant see all servers, as the list is still populated... ED, please answer on this!
Devilman Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 what are the ping results when you ping his IP. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Join Maddog Simulations DCS World Club & Squadrons for every module
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted November 10, 2013 Author Posted November 10, 2013 mh, how can i ping his IP? ...oh forgot to add, direct connect doesnt work either with this server if its not showing up for me. EDIT: when i am flying on the server(once its showing up) then i usually have a ping of ~120 i think, if i remember correctly...and everything is really smooth...
Devilman Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 in a dos prompt type ping then the ip of the server (if you know it) also do tracert and the ip of server eg: ping 123.123.123.123 and tracert 123.123.123.123 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Join Maddog Simulations DCS World Club & Squadrons for every module
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted November 10, 2013 Author Posted November 10, 2013 ok will do so and report back....but what is that good for if i may ask?
Devilman Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 your testing your internet signal between your pc and the host. if one of the 'hops' your signal makes is bad or down that could be the issue. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Join Maddog Simulations DCS World Club & Squadrons for every module
9.JG27 DavidRed Posted November 10, 2013 Author Posted November 10, 2013 thx, and this indeed seems to be the issue... a friend of mine just suggested me exactly what you told me, and guided me through it...i cannot make a connection to this server ip..... but the weird thing is, that it worked for months without a probem, then about ~two weeks ago, the problem appeared for the first time...and now the second time...crap
