Cant connect to server since last reset

Since last reset i can't connect to the server.
*Server list shows it there- attempting to find server times out.
*Favorites list shows IP number of server showing offline status- unresponsive to connection attempts.
*Direct connect with server IP number & tagline game.bgtscc.net- attempting to find server times out.
restarted PC and Network.

i was in middle of rest when the server crashed but i can't imagine it has anything to do with it.
Help please.

It may be an issue with your ISP, but if it's still not working could you send me your IP address in a private message? I can take a look and try to figure out what's going wrong.

Nope, didn't change a thing, but I'm glad to hear you're able to connect now! The likeliest scenario is a node went down somewhere between your ISP and the server and it couldn't make a connection until that node came back up.

For what it's worth, it could have been on our end too--it's really hard trying to pinpoint/troubleshoot connectivity issues like that. :)

I am having this exact same issue at the moment. My internet connection is working fine otherwise. Is it really just a matter of waiting it out?

It seems to figure with BG specifically. I can join other servers with no issue.

I have tried resetting my router and modem. Disabling and resetting my firewall. I have tried with the hotspot on my phone.

Breakthrough: I can connect fine on my other pc, the small poor one. I have set up different ports.

Last edit: IT WORKS! I changed the port again on my primary pc to make sure. But I also noticed while fiddling around with nwplayer.ini that I had set different passwords on the two pcs. I assumed the passwords were obsolete since gamespy was left to rot. Does the BG server use them more dilligently?
