Hi,

Maybe ... make sure firewall is not blocking the connection (better yet ... turn it off).

Grtz.

Indeed, he should try to do /reconnect in his ocnsole sometimes. or it has to do something with his connecrtion or with the server. if you want to know if teh server is down you can always click on the Server Monitor on the website for the status ;)

Goodl luck!

Normally you get a loading screen where you see: awaiting challenge and after that the awaiting gamestate line, but sometimes you get this message for more than 10 minutes (awaiting gamestate xxx ; awaiting challenge xxx).

A solution that may fix the problem;
Go to the directory; C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc (depending on which drive you installed Windows) In the directory ‘etc’ you will find a file called; ‘hosts’. Open the file and choose wordpad or another text editor to open the file with. Now add a new line and type; 192.246.40.62 etguidauth.evenbalance.com Save the file after this.

Now go to the directory; C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory/pb (depending on where you installed Enemy Territory) In that folder delete the file; ‘pbns.dat’, and run the program; ‘pbweb.exe’. Wait while PB updates itself (this may take a while) and you are done.

Thats what F.A.Q says it should help
