Ports?

Post by Sybaek »

I'm unable to connect to the Andromeda Galaxy. It keeps timing out. I can see the galaxy and can also see that it's status is online. But that's it. It's not my firewall, I tried with it down. I think I need to port forward on my router. Unfortunately I can find any port numbers to use. Anyone know what they are?

client shouldnt need any router settings changed to make it work.. theres no fixed port used it just uses whateva your system gives it for a default outbound connection.
are you getting "connection refused" ? when trying to connect to the gal? might be a problem with your account which we might be able to fix serverside..

ah right... thats my bad.. :] looks like all this busy-ness today as hit a limit on the gal server. (it had maximum of 1024 accounts active in one session and apparently we've done more than that today.. tshk! *flog mit )
I've rebooted the gal server so it will accept new accounts now. Rejoin and you should be all good. I'll fix the limit and update the server some more over the weekend.
