When I try to connect to server I get hung up on the screen that says
"awaiting connection 1, 2, 3..." It just keeps counting. I also says
'Server uses protocol 43 or 66' Is this a problem? Why can't I connect?

I'm not running the latest patch. I removed it because I thought it might
be part of the problem.

Thanks,
Mark

Getting 'Server uses protocol xx' means you're not using the same PR as
the server.

If you get server uses protocol 43 that means the server is running the 1.17
point release. If it says that it uses protocol 66 then that means it runs
the 1.29 point release. You are probably running 1.27.
The awaiting connection message means one of the following things:

-you've entered the wrong ip-adress/port number
-the server is down
-you are not connected to the internet
