Can't connect to Server? Try this....

Jherek59 · 24.07.2012, 14:12

Like most of us I let my PC (Windows 7) do its' own thing. A few days ago I found that I couldn't access Werian server. I could get to Heredur though. After checking all the usual boxes (Clear DSO folder, clear Java temp files etc) I "restored my computer to a date when I knew I had access to all servers. It worked!!!! I then left the computer to do its' own thing (auto Windows update at 3 a.m.) and I had the same problem. I do not have the patience to load each update one at a time to see which is causing the problem. I have simply disabled Windows update. It wont cause me any problems.

If anybody else is having similar problems I hope this helps. Also the tech guys at DSO might want to look at this.

Good hint. Thanks for posting.

I changed the thread title slightly so people with this situation could more easily find it.
