When ever i got to play online whether in the internet setting or the Mplayer setting it always says it can't connect to the master server. How do i fix this?

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

I have the same problem, but I can't get all-seeing eye :
I downloaded the installer, but he never connects to the download server.
I don't know what the problem is, but I suspect it's because I use a router...
Can anybody help me? Does anybody have the same pb?

Thanks

Does it work when you remove the router (temporarily)?

Its probably not the router thats preventing connection. Has your system recently been scanned for malware?

What do you mean by malware?
I just did a virus scan, and everything's clean if that's what you mean.

And I need the router to extablish an internet connexion....

i think he means spyware,trackers etc or malicious programs running at start-up ... not viruses.

Precisely. Download and scan with AdAware, Spybot S&D, or Microsoft Antispyware. Personally, I recommend MS' product the most.

You also don't need a router to establish an internet connection. That requires a modem. From the modem the ethernet cable connects either to a router or directly to your computer.

Allright, i'll try to sacn for all the spyware and cie but I've got something confused then because I have this big box that's connnected to the phone line and my computer, on which I can also connect a phone, a gameplatform (such Xbox)... and the modem is inside...

For those who know of this, it's the Wanadoo Livebox, but it's a french thing, I'm not sure it got out of the country...

So what's a router?

Sorrry for all that, but I'm VERY VERY tired of playing against bots...

Do you get a login screen if you go to http://192.168.2.1/? If the answer is yes, that's your router. It's a device that allows you to share an Internet connection.
