Connection problem

[greghobson99 0]

Hi

I'm realatively new to this so I'm not familiar with all the function of it

When i try to connect, a message keeps coming up saying:

A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.

It keeps saying this every minute or so

How do i solve it

Cheers

Either the hub is offline, or your not setup to connect correctly.

Check out the guide's section.

@Satan:

i'm a complete newbie at this. i used to be able to connect to the hub at my school, but after my internet got cut and reconnected, i have been getting the message that greghobson99 is getting. can you please explain in more detail, or link me to a specific guide?

sorry to be a complete bother...

thanks for replying, but...>_<

i'm not using a router; i'm on uh...direct connection (?) with a cord

so i followed the steps outlined in "if you are not behind a router" in the guide linked.

i can connect to hubs like techgeeks, but not to my school hub.

i know that the school hub itself isnt down cause people i know are using it.

also, i'm a bit confused about step 5: Test active mode byclicking on the test connection hyperlink in the connection settings page. the "check connections" hyperlink isnt clickable when i am choose "direct connection"

Your school hub is in intranet, or behind very restricted firewall. Ask the hub admin to try more ports, even 80.
