Cant connect to Global Server

[Katt Horizon]

i had this problem a few days ago and searched for an answer and found it... but
-----------------
Go to the game directory and navigate to the EXE folder. In there find the file fldirectip and open it. This will open the direct connect panel.

Type in the following
IP: 67.173.27.173
Port: 2302
Select add server.
--------------------
This doesnt work again, it worked the first time and i was able to play again then now i got the same problem again so i tryed the above again and went to the server list and let it load but it fails to connect to the global server as it did before...

any other methods that might help me out so that i can play again? i tryed re-installing when it first happend and that didnt work so that idea is ruled out...
