Rigela can't get on Amia, nothing Amia works. Not even the forums! What can be done!?

Do a barrel roll!

Check internet connection. See if you can connect to any other server.

If it's something exclusive to Amia and its website, then it sounds like the problem is out of her hands until it's fixed, unfortunately.

Run and Tracert or ping to see if they can even reach the site or if there's a break down in the routers.

This. I've had that happen a few times. ISP problem likely, or something broken on the way from her to Amia.

Tracert recommended to see where the problem is.

All these suggestions I made at to her.

She used TraceRT, it timed out. I suggested it was her ISP or local box.

False alarm, unfortunately. After 2 min or so of the forums working, the problem of nothing Amia-related working is back.

Only thing I can think of currently isssss... her IP probably isn't static, and so the server isn't accepting connections from her current IP. I've told her to open up the 5121/5122 ports on her router to see if that fixes it. So lets collectively pray that the Discomotrom accepts her filthy british connection.

My IP isn't static either and I've never had this problem. But yeah, lets just hope this issue'll solve itself soon.

Hurrah!

Briefly, for now... Likely just a plot to get my hopes up again though I reckon. Not like I did anything to get it to work.....

Probably dns routing issues for your isp.

Just wait a day or two, it will probably get fixed wherever the problem is.

Hatred (in the UK) was having the same issue starting late Friday night (GMT) after she upgraded Windows Live Messenger. She could see other servers and websites, but the servers weren't in the Gamespy list and trying to direct connect just timed out. Not sure if she's been able to get back on since.

I haven't had those problems, for what it's worth! But I don't use one of the major ISPs either.

Well I don't know about the majority of Amia's players, but I have nwn ports forewarded and a static IP locally. What I'm wondering is if the new MSN in UK uses the same ports as NWN, or perhaps the same ports as Gamespy NWN.

Plausiable?

If she has this issue again, get her to try direct connect to the server. Might work, if she hadn't already tried this.

To be extra sure, set up some port forewarding for NWN and Gamespy.
http://portforward.com/

Also, check that your windows firewall hasn't suddenly turned itself back on for no reason. Sometimes it does that...which is not something I can explain.

@Sune: You probably do, you just don't realise it. Most of the minor ISP's rent out boxes from Major ISPS and use their lines. Which means if something goes wrong with major ISP's it effects minor ones to.

I haven't done any port forwarding on my router settings, and I have the new MSN! But who knows, worth a try.

Works now. Whether the new MSN was causing the problem or not is unknown.

I doubt it's the new WLM causing it. That'd be some big-time network disrupting and probably illegal, too.

My bet is routing issues at some point of the network between Amia and you. If it's still happening, try connecting to another website hosted in the Netherlands.

Mmmrm, had the new one for awhile now I think and everything was working fine till last night (two nights ago?)

Probably just something... odd... going on. But unless it crops up again.. eh. Will give that goggle DNS thing? a gander if I can.. figure out what it is though regardless just to be sure.

I think he means links and how the AV's keep picking up false positives for portforward.com
