Connection problems... again

Post by GenericUsername » 12 Jun 2018, 22:31

So, I have this recurring (and by that I mean that it happens each 1-2 months) problem with connecting to the server. All other servers connect fine while CM shows the dreaded "connection failed" message.
I tried turning off the firewall, reinstalling byond, nothing solved it... but somehow the problem always fixes itself after some days.
I'm convinced that this is a problem on the server side, since a log from my firewall showed that the server wasn't responding. If the team could take a look at this problem I would appreciate it, and maybe it will help people that have the same problem to solve it.
I would put this on gitlab under a bug label, but unfortunately I don't really know what causes this problem.

This happens to me also. But surely if it's serverside, there would be more cases. It could be BYOND failing to connect.

And Anton. Don't forget about Anton.

It's serverside, I talked to Rahlzel and he solved It, seems some IPs near mine were on the blacklist and mine kept being blocked because of them
