Not able to connect

[litlwicked]

I've seeing some patterns in helping people and dealing with my own technical issues. It seems like anything can go wrong, even your internet connection if the game feels like it when you install it.

Here are more suggestions after you've tried the above mentioned link:

Try doing some trouble shooting on your end, cuz if a trace route is dying at your location, most likely the server is dropping you cuz your computer/connection is not responding to the server when it wants to see if the connection is alive.

I would:(test your connection after trying each of these)

Directly connect to the modem, taking the router out of the equation.

Make sure windows security stuff is off. Like windows Firewall.

Check your computer for mal-ware, like tracking cookies and such, they can interrupt connection when sending info on you to their company. (you can use Spybot S&D and/or LavaSofts Ad-Aware. Both are free and good at what they promise to do.)

Uninstall your antivirus program completely. Make sure it doesn't have a firewall program as well, like if you bought the AntiVirus suit.

Uninstal FLMM, FL, reinstall, re-Apply mod.

Check to see if this is happening on all your accounts(if you have more than 1).

Extreme case: Create a second windows login with admin rights and install the game, with nothing else running, and turn off most of your windows services you don't need(like print spooler when you don't have a printer, AntiVirus windows services, etc.)

Good luck.

P.S. Don't mess with your windows services if you don't know what they do please. Google is your best friend if you have any questions about one.
