Hi guys!

I've downloaded the IW5M dedicated server. I followed the instructions (viewtopic.php?f=30&t=11583) but when I'm starting the server it says "Connecting to online service......"

I tried every solution that I found on the forum but it's still doing it.

 

I tested the server on my friend's computer and it worked.He's running Windows XP and I'm running Windows 7 so I think this is the problem.

 

Can anyone help me?

Sorry for my bad english.

Here are some possible causes:

Your ports aren't open

You launched the server with incorrect parameters

The master server is offline

You haven't created a .dsx file in your IW5 folder, restart and try again.

You're not being able to use the required sockets.

 

Also there was a know problem in the Killer 2100 Network cards..

He's running Windows XP and I'm running Windows 7 so I think this is the problem.

yes, because most definitely not using a massively outdated OS is a huge problem.

 

on another note, any 4D1 products are only officially supported under the latest RTM build of Windows (currently NT 6.2) and latest Wine development branches for dedicated servers - anything else is completely unsupported and may or may not work.

I forwarded every port that MW3 needs.

You could try updating your network drivers...

It didn't worked...

Any other idea?

Debug your computer... you already know that's a connection issue. If you're sure that's not a problem with the sockets, then try disabling/unninstalling firewalls/anti-virus one at a time, restarting your computer between each unninstall and try the server again, until you find what's preventing the server from connecting.
