Good site for reviews ... this one above is the preferred mid range good performing router ... there is also a gamer router too.

If I can get the current one to work properly I'll keep it, otherwise I'll return it and have a look at some reviews.

The fun continues as the router I bought is defective and does not include a build in modem anyway (the latter is my fault for not realising this before I bought it), so I'm going to have to return it and get a different one instead.

So, continue twiddling your thumbs. On the plus side I guess the whole delay means those of you in the northern hemisphere who're taking summer holidays don't have to worry about taking your turns for a while.

Just another excuse for wriggling out of you duties.

Seriously, I hope that eventually you will be able to get back online.

Plans are in motion for Dr Strangelove to possibly stand in as a temporary server, no promises though.

Wow, I did not realise that it is that bad.

Well I don't think it's going to be another week, but then I've thought that before and been wrong, so it's better if we try to work something out now. It would also be useful for any extended outages in future.

Hi guys,

I'm away from the 7th-21st so if the game does re-start please contact amh52 as he (?) agreed to stand in for me.

I've passed on the password and stuff like that so it should be ok.

Tell him to keep an eye on this thread, as I'm too lazy to keep track of email addresses for temps.

I need some kind of redirection service... so I can email a fixed address, and then that address will automatically forward the email to anyone who has signed up for the service. Anyone know of anything like that?

Uhm an address book? and/or distribution list?

Well something that doesn't require me to change anything on my end.

 

[namliaM]

A GMail address that you give everyone access to so everyone can maintain the list?

Or this could be a good feature for CivStats

Not sure what you mean by this. Everyone would be sharing a single address?

OK,I'm back i the seat and now hope that the game will continue

I sent back the crap router a few days ago, once the company receives it they'll discuss sending me the new one.

 

[the oob]

ok they've received the router I sent back and should be sending the new one fairly soon.

 

[the oob]

New router has just been sent, so I'll probably receive it before the weekend.

 

[the oob]

I've got the new router, but as I'm busy tonight I'll probably set it up tomorrow night.

 

[the oob]

ok I'm running a test server, if someone can connect to it then I'll know things are working and I'll set up the real games.

Try connecting to the usual address, but with a port of 2059
