SOLUTION: Cannot connect to the Grand Server for a long time
One of our players found that rebooting his router solved this problem. No-one else has had the problem yet but I thought it might be useful to have it here.

had the same issue, router reset logged me in as normal

Re: SOLUTION: Cannot connect to the Grand Server for a long time
Ok i continue to have issues with long waits to get into the server (this happens at various times of the day (i.e morning, supper time, midnight).
I can "fix" this by canceling my log on attempt and clicking log in again.. after anywhere from 1-10 tries it will eventually go through. restarting my router (linksys wrt54g) does not not seem to solve the issue. its on DMZ for the pc.
I will take the router off in a few days too see if that makes it connect properly for t/s sake

Justme2024 - we're getting a new server this week, I'll be interested to know if that helps with your problem. I'm sorry you've having such a hard time logging in.

after a hard reset on the router its connecting very quickly, also moving through the menus (i.e click to get a new game etc) much quicker
Re: SOLUTION: Cannot connect to the Grand Server for a long
I've been unable to connect to the server all night. Rebooting my router didn't fix the issue.
Re: SOLUTION: Cannot connect to the Grand Server for a long
Still the same now... Is it the server? If not, how can I fix it?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Ok, I got that e-mail from Paul :

We'll be waiting thenWe have had some server trouble (unusual for us, actually!) for the last
couple of days and we're working on fixing it.
I'm assuming your problems are due to that - I'll let you know when it's
back up again.

Hi ouarlax.
Yeah, our ISP has a problem today - I'm just on the phone trying to get our server back up. It shouldn't be too long - my apologies.

Note that PeerBlock (http://www.peerblock.com/) seems to prevent the connection to the game server

I can't ever log in at around the same time (4:00am GMT). Is it just me, or is this normal? I've tried all the solutions posted in this thread.

TheInnocent, I think it was you that I just started a game with just now before getting disconnected. I can't reconnect either, the server must be down or something.

Aye, I think we ended up having our game. Looks like everyone got kicked, then slowly filtered back in after about 30 minutes of the server being down.

Hey guys.
I've reschedules the daily server restart to 9am GMT, which I think should be a lot less disruptive. I'll soon be changing it to restart less often.

Hi
I'm also no longer able to connect to FS. Router reset didn't work.
Wireshark shows that the connection is always resetted (SYN -> RST, ACK).
Is the server down or is my version outdated? Any suggestions?
Thanks lot
