Connection Error

Unread post by Arcanum »

Hello all
I'm having trouble logging into the server. My last login was 09/13/19 with no problems but today I keep getting this
Attempting to find server
IP=158.69.123.5121
Connection error
Server is not responding (Timeout)
Can someone help me with this problem so that I may continue to save the world of BG :D

Always use game.bgtscc.net as the server address, not an ip - as it can change.
(current ip is 158.69.123.65)

Thanks but that information still don't work. :x Can someone tell me what is the correct password for the direct Connect
perhaps that's the issue that's causing the problem? or do I have to reinstall the game and all its down loads again??
:x Dammit I really hope that's not the case.

Can you ping the server at all ? Open a command prompt and type: ping game.bgtscc.net

Sadly, these issues can usually only be corrected by waiting a little while! Sometimes your internet service provider and our server just have a hard time talking to each other, but it will usually self correct in a few hours when that happens.

You can try to speed the process along by unplugging your modem for a little while then plugging it back in, but the main solution is just to hurry up and wait.
