Type you're name and 85.10.244.109. Click on the SimV server and click join. It's not extremely busy but hang online a while and you'll find someone.

Make sure you type the address with "Full Stops" between each number....
...NOT "Commas"...A common mistake!

85.10.244.109 ..... :)

Not...

85,10,244,109 ..... :'(

Remember: Sometimes the Server is "Down" for maintenance, etc...;)...!

If you are using a "Router" then your problems are compounded...(Ports).... :o...!

I've always wondered why "Single Users" use a "Router"...?

Is it not possible to by-pass them completely for on-line flying, and just use the "Modem" part to connect to the Internet?

Routers may be fine for "Family" use, but they are a pain in the arse for on-Line Players.... >:(...!!

go to your windows firewall and go to exceptions, add port... and type in the port number and what type (there should be 2 options) i hope this helps ;)
