 Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2007 10:02 am Post subject: unable to connect to server and some poker sites |
 |
|
Since last night, I'm not able to connect to server. When I start the client, I keep getting the same result:
Connecting....
Trying again...
Sorry, Unable To Connect To Server.
I wonder if anyone is experiencing the same problem right now. Also, which is quite weird, I'm not able to reach some poker websites (like ultimatebet.com, pokerstars.com, pokerroom.com), I keep getting timeouts. On the other hand, fulltilt website works just fine. I double-checked my firewall/router settings and found nothing. I was also considering the possibility of my ISP blocking some servers with poker content, but it seems pretty unlikely. Anyone has some clues? |

Welcome to the Forum Play. Yes I have expierenced alot
of DX lately. So, I called my ISP and they say everything is
OK with there service, but perhaps the problem is with software.
I know the weather has been bad also, so I do not know who
or what to believe. I even got DX has I am making this post... 
I also have same problems with AIM. Now regular surfing
the web I have not had the DX's....go figure.... 
I hope there will be more posts aith regard to this........ 
And maybe shed some light on this DAMN problem...... 
That's my rant for today..........  |

I am playing on Stars now and everything appears to be ok (although I cannot stand Stars software). |

|
|
Since last night I cannot connect anymore with the client either. I'm located in Amsterdam, Netherlands and am using Chello/UPC ISP. I called UPC and they said everything is fine on their side. I also cannot connect to Everest or UltimateBet, but I can connect to Party.
I can provide traceroute or other network tests if anyone needs them.

I wouldn't post your IP address if I were you. I suggest you edit it out.
As of now I am connected to FullTilt with no problems. |

That's interesting. I'm located in Prague, Czech Republic, and my provider is UPC as well. I've emailed them with no response so far, but I doubt it's a problem at their side. It's still weird anyway. I'm waiting for a reply from FTP support right now, so we will see.
EDIT: When I thought it over, I actually consider some problem in UPC connectivity more than likely. However, hard to say when they're gonna work it out. |

Same problem here, 'not able to connect to server'.
Can also not reach the fulltilt website.
I had a freeze during a tourn. as from that moment not able to log in again.
Amsterdam/upc/mac.
Thought the problem was the fulltilt server but reading here makes me wander, or is it?
Can it be a problem with upc?
Is there somebody with a solution or some information? |

Apparently it was a problem with UPC. I've recieved a response from FT support an hour ago. It stated:
| fulltilt support wrote: |
| A technical issue with a Domain Name Server (DNS) in Europe has prevented some players from connecting to Full Tilt Poker. This server is neither controlled nor owned by Full Tilt Poker. |
I can log into a client without any problems by now. The problem seems to be fixed. |

Unbelievable, There are players who swear that Full Tilt has no Tech Support. It is nice to see a post that shows how helpful they are. |

Hi, this has happened to me too for the last few days. (which is probably a good thing really as I have lots of assignments that I should be doing) but i'd rather choose not to play then have the choice thrust upon me 
Anywho, it'd be helpfull if there was a response from FT technical support on here. If its a server problem then I needn't worry about it, but if there's something I - or anyone else reading this thread - can do to get connected again then I'd like to know.
Thanks |

This happened to me just recently and It took nearly a week to figure it out.
My CMOS battery is dead and I am to lazy to fix it. So what that means is everytime I do a cold reboot, I have to reset the date and clock. If I dont reset this I cannot connect to any poker client, hence "Time Signature Expired' hope this helps |
