If you check the program so that it loads textures to system mem, it takes a few seconds - close to a minute on my machine. The connection might be timing out in the process. Start the game offline first, then quit and go online - it might help.

Welcom to the world of Lute.  Have not had UDP in AH2 since the FIRST time I tried it (on first day, w/ only 7 peeps ups)

BUT mine is a problem w/ my isp, and the idea of going offline 1st is worth a shot for ya'

Good Luck!

Yep mine times out as well  - and always switches to TCP.

Using  textures load to memory is causing it.

Is this the same issue.  hehe I don't get to fly maybe all weekend because this issue can't be resolved over the phone. No phone support on the weekend.  I downloaded the new patch, and now it can't connect to the host.  I took out the router, I always shut down firewall and antivirus, I downloaded the full version and renamed the old version, I renamed the vid config, I tried to resend password, can't connect to host.  I've tried it with and without preloaded textures. Offline works.   I even tried to set up a new account. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr  :mad: NOJACK
