Hi guys, I need some help with getting on the multiplayer servers. In the past I've been able to play multiplayer with no problem, but just yesterday and today I kept getting either "You have disconnected" or "Server stopped responding" messages and couldn't play any game. When I joined a server as "host" my friend couldn't find me, and I got kicked out as soon as I clicked anything after entering a lobby. I reinstalled KaM Remake and problem persisted. To my knowledge nothing changed these past 2 days (eg. my internet service or speed). Any idea what's going on?
Thanks!

Does this happen on every server ? If so, I guess this can be caused by some firewall (try to disable it), if not then perhaps the connection between your ISP and that server is unstable for some reason.
If you want to host a server, make sure you're accessible from the internet (you have public IP address and/or port forwarding enabled on your router).

Generally speaking most of the timeouts/lost connections I've seen in past were caused by unstable internet connection.

Sounds like a firewall issue.

Do you have a new firewall or anti-virus program? It might be that KaM Remake is being blocked from making connections.

No, there's no new firewall or anti-virus software. I guess that left internet connection. I'll double-check and try again. Thanks pal!

It's not a firewall issue if you can connect to servers sometimes. A firewall would block you all the time.

It sounds like your internet connection is unreliable. Try doing a speed test and ping test:

It was internet connection after all. I'm able to get back in the game now. Thanks a lot guys!
