WHAT A STAR *HmS* Halkatla is, anyway i still cant sign on it just says "unable to connect to server". I have forwarded port 3825 to this pc through the router and also tried with a direct connection to the internet conmpletely bypassing the router still with no joy, however i can connect to other VT servers, this is a link to VT test servers and i can connect to all of them http://voice.tehnetwork.com/ventrilo.php it just seems to be HMS VT server i cant connect to.  Any one with any ideas or thoughts ??????????? Once again many many thanks to *HmS* Halkatla for all the time she has given  Thanks Chirs [ Edited Sun Nov 19 2006 ] | ||

Not much we can do im afraid, as it sounds like a problem between your ISP and the ventrilo server from what you have said. The only thing i can do is forward your IP to the ventrilo hosting company and see if you are some how being blocked by their firewall, if your ISP cant find any problems. Do you have a static or dynamic IP address ? If you have a dynamic IP try changing it and try again, if you have a dynamic address and still cant connect its unlikely a firewall issue with the ventrilo hosting company. | ||
