Telnet problems :(

[MTP]

I think this would be the forum to put it in, so here goes:

I play a game called Aardwolf all the time, and it is fun, but recently I have found a new game, called PokeMUD, where ya can kill pokemon 😀


I can play it at school perfectly fine, and I could play it at home for about a minute, then it disconnected me. Now I can't ever connect to it 🙁 I can still play it from school, and it works fine.

I called @Home Tech Support, and he couldn't connect to it either, and doesn't know what I can do.....

My friend at school has @Home, and he can connect to if fine, so it is not @Home itself.....

The Address for it is:

Host: the-sanitarium.com
Port: 9000

What could be the problem?

Whenever I try to connect to it, Telnet either freezes or gives me a Can't Connect error.

What could be wrong? I REALLY wanna be able to play this game from home.....


Thanks for any effort you give!!!!!

well if you go to their site it says that the port is 6666, try that!
[EDIT] I'm unable to connect as well. [/EDIT]

Your going to have to use a real telnet program, no DOS prompts. I connected just fine using Secure-CRT

I use "PuTTY" for telnet. Great tool, as I use telnet each day at work.

Ok, I found a modem to use, and I can connect using a Dialup connection. This is wierd.


I am not allowed to use the phone line often, so I am still crippled.....
