Figured it'd be the router. Sounds like you're almost set, coolfish.

What I don't get is why isn't 420 using the older system to power the nwserver :P

Throbble and I live in a 100-year-old apartment building. If we have both our computers on, and we try to use the toaster while cooking something in the microwave the breaker switch will trigger and I have to walk down to the basement to turn our power back on by cranking some antiquated Frankensteinesk mechanical device. So I'm a little wary about adding another burden to our electrical system. (I don't think Throbble will go without lights and alarm clock.)

I may do some tests with it later but I hate resetting the clocks. At this point I think running the server is no longer an issue, it's the in-game sound that I need to deal with, but it would be nice to have a 24/7 server just to see if we get anyone during the server's down time (1am-9am Pacific Time).

EDIT: Just realized I forgot to restart the server after I accidentally shut down Windows (still getting used to the interface). I'll run it all night tonight and see if anyone joins.

I hope those computers are on a UPS

:S

Heh, yeah right. They are on surge protectors plugged into extension cords. Because, of course, safety is my greatest concern.
