Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
So I've just downloaded the package off of SA's website, and am attempting to connect for the first time. I've got razor loaded and client 5.0.8.4 running, however once I type in my account details it freezes at connecting and eventually gives me the Cannot connect message. I've also attempted connecting to other free shards and receive the same message. Unfortunately I am completely computer illiterate and don't even know where to begin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Could it be a problem with my Flash? I have every windows firewall disabled currently, as I cannot play League of Legends with it enabled.

Also, I cannot connect to the UOSA IRC either. It errors out after trying to connect w/ this message: [12:03:06] Running lightIRC 1.2.3 Build 101. Project home: www.lightirc.com
[12:03:26] Flash policy problem. If you are the server owner, please read http://redmine.lightirc.com/projects/li ... structions. You need to install a flash policy daemon at flash.wildirc.net (port 843).

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
I too am computer illiterate, but a thought: Do you have Microsoft .NET?
Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
Alright, what OS are you using? ...and yes, as chum said, you might need dotnet (specially if you're running on a Mac using Wine or Boot Camp)
Are you trying the web based IRC clicking the link at the top of this page? If so, then that's the ticket, it has not been working properly for some time. You need to use an IRC client such as mIRC or KVIRC.

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
That makes sense for my IRC issues, however don't you have to have .NET in order for razor to even open? I'm running 64 bit Windows 7.
update: I've now downloaded mIRC and am still unable to connect to our IRC server. Connection error reads as follows:
Session Start: Mon Jan 14 13:01:38 2013
Session Ident: Status Window

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
On the dotnet issue, Razor will open, but will not connect.
On the IRC issue, I have no clue, best to e-mail the support guys at wildIRC.

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
oh well. it's probably a network security issue. my building uses a shared internet connection, and I'm sure there's some sort of built in firewall there. I've had issues with connecting to some LoL games as well. I guess a come-back wasn't meant to be. See ya next year!

Start > Run > cmd
Type in 'ipconfig'
Note the Standard Gateway numbers
Open your browser, enter those numbers. If prompted to login, try "admin/admin" "administrator/administrator" "Admin/Admin" "Administrator/Administrator" and stuff like that. If you manage to enter, find the firewall and turn it off, if that's the case. Also note the model and give the model to us.

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
I still use the IRC link on this page and connect fine.
As far as Razor goes.. When my comp crashed and I had to reformat about a year ago I remember having to run everything as admin as. Also, disable desktop composition and run as classic theme ring a bell. Not sure why I remember them though, hopefully someone else can chime in.

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
.net comes by default with Win7. Sounds more like a network issue or IP ban as Felix stated.
Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
It sounds to me like you're blocked by your network admin. Can you try from a different location?

Re: Troubleshooting (Please Advise)
Hey, D. Thanks for the response, but I'm afraid I have no idea who my network administrator is. Consequently, even if I were able to log in from a different location it wouldn't do me any good, because I want to play UO from home. I tried what Populus had recommended, but none of the username/login credentials were correct. Out of ideas, and motivation. Hope all is well, and it's great to see such a healthy online count. Keep it up!
