Never let em see you sweat.. ;)

 I had that problem for awhile..I could surf and do whatever,.but couldnt get into certain arenas..Found out it was MY ISP blocking the PORTS...Finally got it worked out..I know skuzzy and my ISP provider got tired of hearing me after about 6 months..

 Call your ISP and see if they are blocking any ports  to the internet..

Actually, all of Rolling Thunder secretly chipped in a couple bucks a piece to Falcon's ISP provider.  We were tired of Falcon summoning us to the Early or Mid war arenas (the only arenas he could access on the weekends)...  Really, get about 20 guys together to pitch in a $2-$3 each bribe to the ISP...

Or you could do what Falcon said, that might work too...   :D

First thing is to make sure any firewalls you have running are shut down just to check if they are the problem.

Please note, if you can get to our WEB page, which appears you can, but you cannot get passed the game login screen due to a connection error, it is almost always a firewall problem.

Guys, if you cannot login due to not being able to connect, but you can see our WEB page, then something is blocking the game on your end.  The WEB server also manages the account logins.  The only difference is the port number being used.
