Problem about entering the server

[emkata98]

I found that bug before one or two days.. I was going to play with my friends when a problem accured. They wasnt able to enter the server. They told me that it just writes: The server didnt respond. Reconnecting.. I asked in the /h chat and they told me that is an "Route" problem and to write an topic in here. Any help?  :bow:

Doesnt work..

You might have been route blocked or something..
I've tried it once and i contacted a community leader and he solved it for me.
Don't worry, a manager+ will help you soon hopefully

If you can get a hold of your friend's IP address, it would be a good piece of information to have available when you are able to contact the server's Managers or above. Since you're only getting blocked at your friend's house, they need to know who to unblock.

If this happened the beginning of August, the reason is a mass ban evading from that route.
Only way to get is if the IP is stable and will not change.

Yup, had the same exact problem this morning.
I immediately thought it was the Static IP that I changed the other day when I edited my connection Settings, and so it was.
If you have a Static IP, try making it Dynamic and let you should be good to go.
... I think.
Well, it worked for me so I can't see why it shouldn't for you.

Static IP's mean your IP never changes from the currently-set one. Dynamic means it always changes, or changes once in awhile.

What you more than likely need to do in your case is set it back to static, then change what your static IP is. Either your ISP will allow you to do this after changing the IP before setting it to static, or you may have to contact them and have them give you a different static IP...or just have the Server Owners unblock the one you have.

In case of a routeblock a static IP will help you more as a dynamic one.
We can give a static IP access through a routeblock, but a dynamic IP will remain blocked.

So anyone knows how to get a static IP from a dynamic one?

You have to contact your ISP regarding that. Some charge extra for it, some don't, other's only offer it, and other's don't at all. It all depends on what options they give you.

If they can not give a static IP, ask them to give a 24 hour lease time. As long as you use your router every day, the IP will not change without it being static.

Thanks for answering. I will try to contact my ISP tomorrow.

The strange thing is that they entered the server yesterday from this site: http://www.game-monitor.com/sa-mp_GameServer/178.63.52.144:7777/Argonath_RPG.html but after that they again couldnt. I dont know pretty much about how the IP works (static, dynamic etc.) and i wanted to ask you if its gonna work with Maskmyip.

It depends. As that is often used by hackers and ban evaders, over time it might become routeblocked as well. If we know the IP is a proxy, we do not unblock.
