| Hmm.. all of a sudden I have been unable to connect to any server via IRC clients. (I've tried HydraIRC and mIRC) I don't understand. I've changed none of my settings, I called my ISP to see if the network had changed - nothing should be wrong, and I keep getting the message that my connection timed out. Anybody know what could be wrong? | |||

| Perhaps the server name is wrong or maybe the ports. | |||

| You're on a university network, right? Have you checked if it is using a new firewall or something? | |||

| I did recently install Norton antivirus and I know that Norton products tend to interfere with internet access, but I installed it over a week ago and I lost IRC access just yesterday. Who knows... Xin: Like I said I called tech support for the university network but they told me everything should be in order. He didn't mention any system upgrades. Do I believe them, well no, they're a bunch of schmucks. |

| Try putting it through port 80 if possible, or ping someone (who you know is online) through port 6667. If you can get through on 80 (which I use because it's HTTP, can't very well block it) but not 6667, they blocked IRC. [edit] Ping on a port? I need to stop posting when I'm sleepy.  Well, try something non-IRC.(edited by HyperHacker on 05-13-04 09:45 PM) |

| Napkins: FYI, sometimes I get booted off IRC and can't reconnect for hours on my school's network, but AIM and IE still work fine. I blame it on the packet shaper they have... | |||
