Down, address change, or problem on my end?

Post by Elyse » Mon Jan 28, 2019 1:14 pm

Haven't logged on in a long while, and now I try to log in, and mudlet is hanging on:

[ OK ] - mudlet-lua API & Geyser Layout manager loaded.
[ INFO ] - looking up the IP address of server:72.52.169.8:2224 ...
[ INFO ] - The IP address of 72.52.169.8 has been found. It is: 72.52.169.8
[ INFO ] - trying to connect to 72.52.169.8:2224 ...

Has the server address or port changed? Are we down? Or is this probably something on my end? Websites are loading fine and I've reset my router, so not seeing anything obvious. Guess this serves me right for being away so long.

Try with the server name rather than IP address? I *think* since we migrated to a new server the IP is dynamic so it might change from boot to boot. I just logged on and it connected to 34.217.254.118 on port 2224.

Server address: game.wotmud.org
Port: 2224

Excellent. That worked. Thanks, Reyne!
