[SOLVED] Ragnarok Online Valkyrie server

BlackCrescent · 06-16-2009, 08:45 AM

Ok, I'm new to the whole Ragnarok world and I haven't even been able to play do to a "Disconnected from Server" message. Now I have looked through all the FAQs and I have:
Lowered the firewall
Updated flash and DirectX
Downloaded and updated regular Ragnarok before installing Valkyrie
Direct link to the modem
Tried reloading it 3 times already

I am using a Windows Vista Laptop, intel core duo processor, home basic edition. I sent an email to the help desk already, but I highly doubt anyone will answer it. Is this a stupid error on my part? I can't think of what the problem is. Any suggestions?

Hi and welcome to TSF!
You may need to open ports for Ragnarok. What is the make and model of your modem and router?

BlackCrescent · 06-16-2009, 10:26 AM

Um, I'm not sure how to find the modem's model and make, but on my router it says Model:TM502A. The router is from time warner cable as well.

Thank you, its good to be here. I only posted today and some is here to help, this place great. =D

**Jason09** · 06-16-2009, 01:12 PM

Here is a guide for a very similar router.

BlackCrescent · 06-18-2009, 09:06 PM

Thank you for that. =D

But I seem to be having trouble with it. I can't complete the directions becuase it says that I have take the IP address and put it into the address bar, and suppossedly a log in screen comes up. Unfortunately when I do that, it goes to a "page can not be displayed" page. What did I do now?

**Jason09** · 06-19-2009, 09:29 AM

Go to start>all programs>accessories>run. Type cmd, then in the command prompt ipconfig. The default gateway address is the IP to use for accessing the router.

BlackCrescent · 06-20-2009, 08:16 AM

Sorry, I mis-spoke. That's exactly what I did, but the page "can not be displayed". Like I said, I followed the instructions but I can't get anywhere becuase it seems my address bar won't accept these addresses.

**Jason09** · 06-20-2009, 09:07 AM

Ok, you're not putting www. or http in front, correct? If putting the default gateway address in the web browser with the octets doesn't work, you may need to do a factory default reset.

BlackCrescent · 06-21-2009, 08:21 AM

I called up my ISP before and they said that apparently the thing I was talking about isn't a router, it's a modem.
http://www.arrisi.com/product_catalo...dex.asp?id=387 This thing to be precise. Then again, that still shouldn't stop me from accessing the router right?
Well then, what's this factory deafult reset of which you speak? That, and what's an octet?

**Jason09** · 06-21-2009, 11:35 AM

Maybe it is just a router.
Take for instance an IP of 192.168.0.94. The "192" is one octet, then "168", and there are four of them for most IP addresses.
Is the IP from ipconfig (the one just above the subnet mask) the same or different as www.portforward.com? If the same, then I suspect the first octet from the IP from ipconfig does not start with 192, 172, or 10?

BlackCrescent · 06-22-2009, 06:16 AM

Your right, it does't begin with any of those. It begins with a 74. So is the problem my IP address?

**Jason09** · 06-22-2009, 11:14 AM

That means if you are directly connected to the TM502A it is just a modem, and no router. What is your software firewall?

BlackCrescent · 06-23-2009, 06:13 AM

It says just Windows Firewall. It's the firewall that came with the computer, but I'm not sure if that's the problem since I have it set so Ragnarok can go through it, even the ports it's said to need. Heck, my brother even turned the Firewall off to see if that was it but we still couldn't get on to Ragnarok.

**Jason09** · 06-23-2009, 09:08 AM

It's possible your ISP may be blocking some of the nessescary ports for Ragnarok. Have you contacted them to see if they block ports?

BlackCrescent · 06-24-2009, 12:44 PM

Yeah, but they said all the ports are open.

**Jason09** · 06-24-2009, 12:59 PM

Are you using a wireless connection?

BlackCrescent · 06-25-2009, 12:28 PM

No. I might be getting one evantually, but since I live in the middle of nowhere, who knows how long that will take. T_T

**Jason09** · 06-25-2009, 08:31 PM

Try downloading the PF port checker to see if the ports are really open.

BlackCrescent · 06-26-2009, 05:04 AM

I ran the numbers through and lo an behold- they're all open.

**Jason09** · 06-26-2009, 09:01 AM

Ok. When you say you reloaded the game, have you tried reinstalling it?
