I get "You have been disconnected from the server". But the server's not down.

Hello!

I reinstalled the game because of it freezing, maybe eating 100% CPU, i don't know. But now when i connect, then select/choose the character i want to play with i get this, click me! (http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/8166/screenshotyy0.png)


I know the server's not down because it takes 5-10 seconds before i get disconnected, so i've seen that there're people playing. I don't think this would help, but i play on Linux Ubuntu Dapper Drake. If you need to know something more, even though i don't think its needed, just tell me.

Thanks in advance.

sounds like a hardware problem with your box.
two diffrent problems: your networking and your freezes

is the cooling ok?
do you use wlan?

No it doesn't sound like hardware probs to me, what it sounds like is you've got some sort of firewalling, I don't know exactly how regnum uses this, but I've seen the same behaviour on ftp servers, ok so not the same exactly, but the symptom is the same. I would suggest checking so you don't have a firewall blocking some ports.

I run Linux and have no idea of how to open the firewall conf. I downloaded a firewall conf. program yesterday, but i didn't do anything. This has never happend before, till yesterday when i downloaded you-know-what. I run as i said before, Linux Ubuntu Dapper Drake. If you know, please tell me how to do this..

Thanks.

By the way, i have no idea what options to set and what to not, you know? There's some settings i have to choose yes and no on when i first open the program, but i have no idea what to do.

As root, (or using sudo), type iptables -L

I find myself saying this a lot lately, but have you checked that your router isn't blocking it? It seems the more likely culprit than your distro coming preconfigured with a firewall that also happens to block out regnum. Then again, I use gentoo, so I'm used to things not coming with much at all.
