Post from what ISP you are using & Welcome!

Ziroc · 12-14-2002, 12:18 AM

You have no clue how LOOOONNNGGG it took to get this set up! [img]smile.gif[/img] This server is online and in MY HOME now! Thanks to the donations, we came back. When we went down, (JUST LIKE L-A-S-T CHRISTMAS!) I was livid.. So I called my ISP friend, and asked when we'd be back up, and he said something.. basicly, he didn't pay his bill, and they cut him. And he said 'I'm not worried about it'.

I said, "If you aren't up by Tuesday, I'm coming to get it." so I got a high speed cable installed here ANYWAY (knowing he won't do anything for weeks) and here we are! I spend like 12 hours straight working on him.. lol, and when I went to bed last night, I didn't know if the DNS was even right, but here it is, I wake up, and people are trickling in! WOOOOO HOOOOO!!!

Post your ISP you're using. And tell me how fast loading and stuff is!!!

GLad to be back.. I said to myself, "We WILL be up during Christmas!"

Posting from a local-area ISP, and it seems to be going fairly fast (especially considering that this is dialup...).
I`ll check what it`s like with the bigpong ADSL when I get home [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm on AOHell and everything's bananas. Nice work there, Z.

Awesomenet, and it was unusually slow at first but seems to pick up after I browse a bit.

Ziroc · 12-14-2002, 01:43 AM

Awesome! I worked my ASS off! [img]smile.gif[/img]

Here is what I did:

Ordered Business class Cablemodem service (much faster)
Ordered 1 IP (which is 24.129.134.18)
Bought a Linksys Router (4 port)

BUT, I can't get it to work like the following:
1. Cat5 goes from cablemodem to router WAN, then port 1 goes to IW server and Port 2 goes to my home PC. Even if I USE the router, it won't work..

So I have the cat5 coming out of the cablemodem right to the IW server.

What I wanted to do was the above. Now, I'm not the best at setting up networks.. but geez. I thought this would work.. I figured all I would need was 1 IP and I could bluff the other server with a 198.0.0.1 or something.

SO... I ordered another IP, so I can get work done on my other PC, and so they can talk.. this ALSO means, I can have a NWN server running [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's getting pricy, but I've gotten help from many great folks that donated.. whew!! [img]smile.gif[/img] An extra IP costs $25 (I think a Month too) .. ugh. Anyway, right now, I don't care, it's covered for atleast 3 Months, so we're sweet for now!! [img]smile.gif[/img]

This is FUN! Since the IW server is here at home, I can watch stuff in real-time! Muhahahah! [img]smile.gif[/img]

How you did it was beyond me Ziroc but I'm soooo glad you did. a BIG thankyou and speed wise it is just the same if not better. Was anyone else out there having withdrawel symptoms?
Some of the pages on the forums i go to though come up "unable to find server" but if i try again they always work (just to let you Know).
once again thanks.

I'm using ADSL from my home PC and it seems faster then before.

Good job, Z.

GokuZool · 12-14-2002, 03:30 AM

Whoa..on my 56k connection ( [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) it's going suprisingly fast!

Great work Z [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
