Topic: No servers (on Ubuntu Linux)

Hi,
I know that I'm not the only one who have this problem, but I haven't seen any solution, except disable the firewall (I've done it, but it doesn't work...).
When I start Teeworld, it seems to work, there are servers in the list, but when I try to connect to one of them, it displays 'Connecting to ...(ip)', but it doesn't work. When I return on the server list, it's empty, there are 0 servers, or, sometimes, there are servers, but there are no informations about most of them (no name, just an ip address, and ping = 999 )).

I'm on Ubuntu Jaunty, my firewall isn't active.
Edit: I can play online with other games (open-arena...).
Edit 2: A screenshot:

There are 3 are 4 servers with informations (first server in the screenshot), but I can't connect myself.

Thanks.
(And sorry for my bad English, I'm French)

Re: No servers (on Ubuntu Linux)

I tried on Windows XP (on the same computer), and I had the same problem.
Maybe it comes from my router (my internet service provider is numericable (i think it's a French company, but if anybody knows...)).
Is there any port which has to be opened?

It's really weird.
I tried to play and it worked. But when I stopped playing, and restarted the game one hour later, same problem, I had no servers.

Re: No servers (on Ubuntu Linux)

I had a D-link router that blocked most connections (very similiar to your problem, 1 out of 100 connectable servers)
if you have a D-link router, try refreshing the browserlist and then check logs in your router, if there's a bunch of blocked connections i guess youre having the same problem smile

I have a Netgear router.
I looked in the logs, nothing happened today.
Thanks.

Re: No servers (on Ubuntu Linux)

Does the router try to setup a connection or is the connection blocked before it gets to the router?

Re: No servers (on Ubuntu Linux)

I have no informations about connections in my logs.
I just can see the errors.
