no servers showing up -- time out

445kabal · #1 06-29-2008, 02:37 PM

Whenever I log into EQEmu the server select is blank and eventually times out. I have no idea why, I followed all the steps and searched on the forum but nothing has helped.

-I have retail copy of Titanium freshly installed without any patching
-I have a EQEmu Login Account
-I edited the EQHost file perfectly without any white spaces
-I'm running it with the eqgame shortcut with patchme
-My firewall and antivirus are turned off
-I have a good computer so that's not a problem

At this point i'm absolutely clueless on what the problem could be

Thanks

Are you in a college dorm by chance? Most of them run proxies that can block the ports needed to play on.

I don't live in a dorm

I am using a cable internet connection. I'm not sure if my ISP would be blocking port 5559 since I can log into my LS account no problem.

You mean 5998?

Code:

Host=eqemulator.net:5998

Make sure you are following this guide:

Otherwise, everything you already said sounds good to me.

You tried with 5998 in your eqhost file right? Just trying to make sure, since you keep typing 555.

If you are running a dual or quad core CPU or windows Vista, you might want to check out this post:
