Rickod, are you familiar with running traceroutes? It sounds as if you are having a routing problem connecting to our server. Another thing to try is our alternate route to the main arena which is the second arena choice.

Any ping program should do host names along with IPs.

Rickod, are you trying to connect through a proxy server at work? You might want to check with your network admins to see if AH will work from behind your work's firewall(assuming it has one).

This is the same problem I am having, as noted on the connectivity board. It is not a ping issue, but it may be something to do with cable/networked systems. But why would hth work and not the Main?

I'm having the same problem with the same
setup that worked fine for me a few months
ago with my old AH account (that's right,
I cannot stay away). I have updated to the
latest patch. I have a 56K modem, no
firewalls or anything unusual. The exact same
(save for revision number) setup worked just
fine, but now fails to find host. There must
be some problem with account activation.

Hi guys, we had a bug in the system that was causing this. It's fixed now and you shouldn't have a problem. Let me know if you still do. Thanks.
