HI all,
I'm having trouble with the multiplayer. When ever i try to connect it gets to "Connecting to Global Server" and then crashes. Can anyone give me some advice?

if you have a router (hub with a firewall) try opening ports 2300 to 2310, you may also have to give Freelancer permission to access the net. Lastly make sure that you are not using TCIP ver 6 you can check this by clicking properties on your network connection and looking at the installed protocols, if you are remove it
there are also ways without using the global server but you would have to know the IP of the server you want to play on.

yes you can direct connect and there are lists of most popular servers. this has happen to me and its when mods have gone wrong. could also be a fire wall prob.

check mods and reinstall fl
