no threats: Viruses/Spyware/Malware etc...

*EDIT* Also last night, Crimson was having the same problem, only He couldn't join
any server he tried to join. It wasn't just #4 like me.



Clearly you're all troublemakers and getting banned from BFM servers one-by-one then....

Have you tried pinging the server?

In XP:

Start Menu > Run > cmd

and then enter: "ping 72.37.237.100" without the quotes


In Vista/Windows 7:

Go to your start bar, and in the search bar type in "cmd" (Once again without the quotes)

and then enter the same thing: "ping 72.37.237.100".


Let me know how this goes.

Well, from that you know that the physical machine - the server - is reachable and running, but that's all....

It won't tell you if the GAME server (service, actually) is accessible/running correctly ON that machine, tho....



The truly curious thing about your problem is that you see it/get it listed in the Halo GameSpy Lobby, but cannot connect to it, but you HAD to connect to it to get the info from the game server?!?  (You DO see the stuff scrolling by at the bottom about the Halo game config and players in-game, right?)

  For a little bit today I wasn't able to see the server in the lobby,
So I'm guessing it was down for a while. But it turns out I can connect now.
Really appreciate the help guys, I will update if it happens again.
Thanks again all.

...But you said you had problem direct-connecting to it via IP, right?  So we can't just blame it on the Halo GameSpy Lobby being flaky....

Anyway, GL!

That server dc'd everyone last night randomly, could be the dedi acting up.

I can say that I've been DC'd in each one of the BFM servers, and that that seems to have started several months ago.  (Not every time/every map, but in any given server at some point it has stopped responding and kicked everyone out....)

As have I, simply thought it might be relevant to his problem, since he can draw the server info it should theoretically let him join...
