d2 not connecting. why why why?!
it freezes on the connecting to faster server box. any answers?!


**side notes

i use norton
i believe i have put d2 on exception list but it still isnt connecting
my ISP is advantek

Restart your computer.
Then try again..

If it still doesn't work, I'd start worrying.

i just remembered something. i cant connect to battle.net on any game. i used to play wc3 but then when i couldnt connect anymore i stopped. they both freeze at the same location too.

If it was just a connecting problem, I'd say either firewall, crappy connection, some other stupid software problem or maybe even an IP ban. But, the freezing makes me think your comp can't handle it. Make sure you meet the minimum specs.

And if you dont prompty purchase a new computer because d2 is old as shit..

my comp can handle it. i got a dell XPS 400 -- it doesnt really freeze persay it just kinda sits there continuously trying to connect. i tried restarting it and it dont work.

you said IP ban? that would mean my ip is banned and not my account right? is there anyway to check this?

guess im stuck with single player and ill just test out builds for my friend that sucks...anyone know any trainers for the latest patch?

you said IP ban? that would mean my ip is banned and not my account right? is there anyway to check this?

Yeah. PM me your acct name, realm , and password. I'll check it out.

har har

anywho. i can access my account from a different computer. just not mine. my girlie just bought d2, so ima try her cd-key and see if that would work for me.

if it is an IP ban. how can i change this? or fix it? or whatever i need to do so i can play again.

Why do you think im kidding?

no, but i dont know how you would check what i cant

I misread your post. nvm >_<

ok i know a couple of things that could possibly be wrong

1. my firewall
2. my router?
3. ip ban (wasnt this referred to as realm down a while back?)
4. my isp

i have norton security center, and a lynksus(sp) router. im on wireless internet called advantek.

if any of you know how to add exceptions / open ports. or tests i can do to figure this out, it would all be greatly appreciated.
