Server cannot be reached... still...

[Armina]

Greetings all,

It's been a few weeks since I was last able to play Mabinogi. There has been numerous threads about how people can't connect to the server and such, but after a few reinstalls, it seems like everyone is back in and playing. Unfortunately, I am still left out in the cold. T_T

I have uninstalled Mabi and reinstalled several times, not to mention I've redownloaded the game a few times as well (just in case). I have tried to use the manual patcher, and have even tried to reconnect to my wireless router. I have no mods and my antivirus (which I've turned off just to see if Mabi would work) isn't effecting Mabi. Furthermore, I've restarted my computer countless times just to see if that worked.

I've ran out of ideas and miss playing Mabi.

Help anyone?

Sounds like Windows Firewall or some router settings is blocking your Mabinogi from connecting or something.

Try refreshing your Internet connection/Repairing it from your Control Panel on the Start menu of your computer.

It's not my internet connection since I'm online... right now.

Are you able to access the official Mabinogi website?

This might work especially if you don't use Internet Explorer as your web browser.
Open your IE browser and check if it's on offline mode. If it is, for some reason mabi doesn't think you have internet. (restarting your computer doesn't reset IE to online mode if its off)

Yes.

How do I check to see if it's on online mode? Personally, I think it already is since I would go to Nexon's main page, login and try to connect to the game. Even with that, it doesn't connect to the server.

Go to your top of the toolbar, and click file. If "Work Offline" is checked, then uncheck it.

[Armina]

It is not offline. Anyone else have any other suggestions? I'm also waiting for Nexon to reply to my ticket...

[Cho]

What about unplugging your Internet connection cord and re-plugging it in? Or if you have a Modem, turn it off and then turn it on again.

Have you also tried Repairing your connection ?
With like:

Start>Connect To>Show All Connections>Connection that you use for Internet>Support>Repair?

If it's nothing to do with your ISP, then it's probably one of Nexon's failures again..

[Armina]

I just updated my drivers and resetted my internet connection.

I tried to repair but it said that no problems were founds. I did this a few times...

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

When I visit my parents and use their computer, I can log into my character but not on my personal computer (even though I was able to play before).

:/

Honestly, this probably won't work but you can try anyway. Pretty simple and quick to do.

Open Internet Explorer (Regardless if you use it or nooot)

Open up the Internet Options
Go to the Connections Tab
Down towards the bottom there is a box called LAN settings, click it.
Then check and see if it's trying to use a proxy or an automatic config script.

If it is, uncheck the proxy box and just click Automatically detect settings.

If not, I'm sorry. D:

Are you able to access ftp://mabipatch.nexon.net in your browser?

When I went there my box was unchecked! o_o
After clicking it and retrying to connect, the same message came up... GOOD try though! :X

When I do, all I see is...

"Index of ftp://mabipatch.nexon.net/

Up to higher level directory

Name Size Last Modified"

So I assume yes...

[Armina]

Anyone else having this problem? I hope I'm not the only one...

If anyone can solve my problem, I'll give them 50k on Mari! D; I want to play so bad...

[Keysersoze]

hmmmmm i was playing last night but now seems that its to busy or something blimin server cant be reached grrr seems its very temperamental maybe because im in new zealand? i dunno

but good luck hope all gets fixed

[Armina]

I got word back from Nexon saying that if I delete my NexonUS folder in my C drive that it'll work.

However:
1.) Every time that I delete the folder and start up Mabi, it reinstalls itself.
2.) Even though I deleted it, uninstalled mabi and deleted the folder, and reinstalled Mabi from a fresh download, it still won't connect to the server.

I've e-mailed them again... hope they can find something else that works.

Anyone else have any suggestions? :\

Could you post the contents of your HOSTS file? C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts It should look something like this:

# Copyright (c) 1993-2009 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost
...unless you or a program wrote modifications to it.

Also, try plugging your PC directly into the ISP modem--bypassing the router.

Sorry for the late reply, I've been keeping myself busy with other things since I haven't been able to play Mabi.

Here is what my Host file contains:

It looks the same...
