Lobby Server down for anyone else?

[FLOZi]

Peet can get on fine, but I can't get on either TASClient or SpringLobby. Anyone else in the same boat?

Just had the usual timeout error and it refuses to let me back on.

[xeriot]

same there i can't connect i really don't understand maybe some pb with my provider or filter on the serv, at this moment i haven't look after routing process to debug error..

[Mav]

Ditto... any response would be awesome!

-Fun backstory: just moved into new apartment and I won't have internet until next Saturday *FFFUUUUUUU*
Checked all wireless routers (about 15 to choose from) and they're all secure... *Double FFFFUUUUUU*
Put up a flier at the front entrance asking if someone could share wireless with me for a week. Get a knock at my door and a cute chick is there. She gives me free wireless (and uses sexy words like "physical address" and "SSH to work server"... I'm instantly turned on.
She leaves, I try to connect to Spring *Triple FFFFFFUUUUUUUU*

hahah finaly i found my error :
google dns (8.8.8. don't resolv adresse of spring master server ( taspringmaster.clan-sy.com ) so i use a normal dns from my provider (orange one) and it run.
that a big joke from google admin policy. google must really stop have some service like that. they really suck.

[FLOZi]

Damn, I switched to googledns the other day because my ISPs dns blows.

[xeriot]

but that new, last day it work, i really don't understand their logic ...

[Licho]

Google resolves springrts.com though.
Or licho.eu
Both point to spring lobby server.

[Mav]

Something is seriously broken. I still cannot connect. I have tried TAS, SL, and SD. None will let me connect.

I can still browse the web, watch videos, play other multiplayer games, and torrent files. Connecting to Spring is the only thing that doesn't work.

It's not a DNS issue. My default DNS was provided by my ISP. I tried Google DNS and OpenDNS and still cannot connect.

I can see the news page on TAS client, it just won't actually connect to the lobby.

[knorke]

it works for me and playernumber on server looks normal.
tried the backup servers?

[Mav]

None of the servers work... SL just says "connecting" and nothing ever happens. Same for all three actually. Is there some way to test if the port or something is working? Like I said I'm connected to my neighbor's router so I really don't want to bug her with my problems lest she tire of my ways and kick me off.

[FLOZi]

Myself and xeriot could connect to the second backup server (but not the first)

[Mav]

Nope I've got nothing. I've tried the official server, backup 1, backup 2, and test server on all three lobbies.

As I hinted at in my first post, my neighbor is definitely above the average computer user. Could she have done something that would make Spring unhappy?

[Pressure Line]

port 8200?

you know you're dying to ask her if she can open up some ports for you.

[hoijui]

maybe she is checking your traffic too.
it has to be possible to exploit that somehow...
like.. order some expensive shit, so she will think you are rich. or watch different kind of porn, one kind per day. and one day she might knock on your door, if you hit the right thing.

[Mav]

So just got internet installed today, Spring works woot woot

[AF]

Maybe she plays spring and has the ports forwarded to her machine?
