hi limon,

a) It's probabily linked to b), if your connection goes down it's hard you will see any server on list.
b) It's more likely that it is your provider/your modem problem, I had a similar problem some time ago and it was related to a modem cooldown issue.
d) Do you "run ET as an administrator"?

By the way, make sure you installed the et patches 2.60 and 2.60b, and check our faq's for anything, that might be useful:

Looks like your Et can't connect to servers. I'd check my firewall first if I were you.

1. make sure you are online (establish connection with the internet)
2. connect to a PS server: for instance: open your console and and connect to PS1 via: /connect wotan.prime-squadron.com:27960

3a. you are still connected with the internet but you get an "awaiting connection 1, 2, 3, (...)" message: press ESC and choose MODS, there you can load different mods. choose any other mod then the current mod, e.g.: etpub. after that your ET will restart. then choose the noquarter mod and try to reconnect ( /connect wotan.prime-squadron.com:27960 )

3b. if your internet connection closed: maybe it is your router firewall / windows firewall ...

Request to Master Server has to do with PunkBuster. If you're convinced that PunkBuster is the issue here, reinstall it by downloading pbsetup.exe and pbsvc.exe from EvenBalance.

What Operating System do you use?

diclonious suggested to download the pbweb.exe if you are sure, the problem is pb related.


btw, are you sure your connection is interrupted when you launch the game or is there just an "awaiting connection" screen?

Operating System = Windows XP, Vista, 7, Linux (which distribution), Mac. I am implying that there is a PB malfunctioning, be it by routerfirewall or PB itself, that disables your internet.

Run it as admin - it's essential in Vista. And get PBSVC.exe, too, it configures your services.

Maybe your router can't handle the large amount of ping requests. Try running et.exe +connect 178.63.72.111:27960 and tell us what happens.

What kind of virus scanner you have? I have mcafee, and every time i get a new game or program that needs connection to the internet, it asks me if it can get connection.

Maybe you have to change this:

i dont understand not much about this things but sonds realy funny strange what probs you have.
i had already tried it to save my cfg and my etkey and maybe also all maps (etkey and cfg if you have realy important to save and maps when you have and you wont have to waste time on downloading the maps from server)). then delete ET complete.
then i would go to this link http://www.prime-squadron.com/modules.p ... oad_Center
download number 1 and install it, same with number 2, download number 3, open the rar folder, then replace the et.exe and the etded in your etfolder with the ones from the rar archive.
now try to connect to a server and when it works then put back your cfg, etkey and maps.

also make sure you run it as administrator and make sure your firewall or antvirus programm dont block et.

worked everytime i had some etprobs :D
