help with connecting

Launcher/pack Version: up to date

Operating System: windows 7 64 bit

Version of Java: I don't know exactly, but i think it's up to date

Description of Problem: my friend has this tekkit server that i'm having issues connecting to. i've been able to connect in the past and when i ping him with command prompt it gives me a response. i think it's just his server because i've been able to connect to other servers. he's tried redoing port forwarding and restarting the server but it just doesn't work. any help would be appreciated.

Error Messages: Couldn't connect to host

Link to pastebin of log: N/A

i'm not sure how much of an actual bug this is but i didn't know anywhere else to post and i did need help with this. thanks in advance to anyone who helps :D

can you connect to any other servers? doesn't matter which ones, just any one will do. if so, your friend is the issue and not you. laugh at him until he learns computer enough to run a server correctly.

ahh yeah i can play on other servers.

also, i was able to play on it in the past D:

it seems to have broken recently. oh well. thanks for the advice >:D

[freakachu]

yep, it's on his end. commence the laughter.

Hi, I run the server, and you should really be less of a fuck. For your information, xadobex is the only player not able to connect. I initially was sure it was my end until I had someone else connect to the server and it worked as expected. I then proceeded to write a little proxy script for him to run on his server as a test. It's just had to find a time when both people are on skype.

Hi, I help moderate the forums, and you should really be less of an idiot. for your information, if a person can connect to other servers, nothing client side is blocking his connections in a general sense.

it's either you, or he has blocked your IP and only your IP on his end which would be impressive. however, instead of just ban you, if you want to provide some details of your setup I might just try and help you despite your deserving every inch of a ban.

how are you hosting this thing? what's your OS? what's your IQ? shoe size? what's your network setup like? using a router? hamachi?

I have the server running on my old macbook, still running mac os x. My network has 2 routers in it, one is a time capsule (which is a network hard disk and router in one box) and the other is a FiOS router. I believe the macbook is connected to the FiOS one directly rather than indirectly through the time capsule. I'm running the server directly via a port forward with no nginx or other reverse proxy. no hamachi.

instead of my shoe size and IQ, I figure some more useful information would be preferred. I managed to get my friend with a the proxy online at the same time as us and it worked perfectly through the proxy, just with some understandable network lag.

in that case it is an ISP issue, most likely. assuming of course that the proxy was hosted somewhere else beside either of you two's houses. I'd tell the OP the call his ISP but chances are they'd be no help whatsoever with a problem like this. you're probably going to have to wait for the ISP to get their crap together and use the proxy or something like it until then.
