[bdpf]

HI guys
Start  CE it loads and get connecting to the fastes server notice / screen.
It runs for a minute or so and switches to the you have no connection error screen.
I have done hot and cold reboot which unsauly clears this problem.

Now I know my DSL and router are still up and working.

If the server is down, Okay then, that I can understand, other wise could I have some help PLEASE.

Sorry to make you sad, but the server runs fine. I was in a game just a few minutes ago.

I have no idea what could the reason for your problem.

Reinstalled Diablo LOD & CE 767.exe, still no connection to CE sever....
Question, would the fact that I have not donated this month have caused a problem?
This is starting to bug me BIG time.
Is there any help out there?

Just did three different things:

1. I cleared up more space on the C hrd drv where CE is installed, space had gotten a little tight.

2. Then I defraged it.

3. Set up the DSL again after I was able to get a clear shot to it. The rest of the family was using it nearly nonstop. <SMILE>

NOW I'M BACK ON-LINE WITH CE <whaahoooo>

I think it's a toss up between 1 & 3 or a cobo of them as to why I could not get on-line. i'm also running the 767.exe full version rather than the update. <smile.

I hope this will help others who have problems connecting to CE.
As for b-net, I was unable to connect. I'm still using the 1.10 patch.
Should I be using the 1.11 patch?

You can use the D2 original patch you want, Chaos Empire has all needed files to run under 1.10 if activated.
