Connection problems?

[chanceyy]

ok for those of us who are not tech minded & are not sure whats going on with the connection issues I have had several excellent explanations to the issues so thought I would share them

as per MT's post above if locate your ip address and it starts with 192.168 or 10. this means your going through a router which means it's internal.

Explanation:
Like, if you send a package to someone at a company it goes to the companies mail room. From there they take it to the correct department and person. The department and persons name make up the internal address. Outside the company you don't know what that internal address is.

Regarding the issue why some ppl can connect & some can not.
Explanation:
there's a whole lot of machines between us and kb. There's routers, switches and other stuff that all do slightly different things. If one of them is playing up, misconfigured or actually blocking certain ip's then it's what is causing the problem. But it's not something we can diagnose. We just have to try and bug the companies that own the machinery between us and the server and try and get them to check things out


so plz you very techy ppl, understand that some of us are not that puter savvy this helps us to understand

Talking to Telecom Technical Support about it, but they say they have only had one complaint about this. If more people call Telecom and log a fault, then they'll give it more attention and will also be able to track the problem better.

I don't think it is solely a Telecom issue Spankme I'm on KOL with the same issues.

Telecom are pulling your pissers, Spankme and Mental Trousers, they had more than one complaint!
I was going to follow MT's instructions, but now that it's working, I'll leave it.
Telecom and pelicans have one thing in common.... they can both stick their bills up their arses

Oh yes. I missed you soooooo much

[SpankMe]

I've been ok from home today, but just before I typed my previous post, I had a short connection problem with http and ssh which has never been a problem. Also connecting from work is working again. Maybe something has been reset/fixed.

Is anyone still having connection problems?
