Multiple Solutions to the Infamous Server Finding Problem

[Dracofyre]

All righty folks as I right this I just ascended from Multiplayer Hell. Like many people on the forum I was plagued by the infinite wait for your computer to get the "new" server list. Well a few solutions have been sugested. For me the one that made everything click was the one Lucasarts had on their site concerning firewalls doing there job to well.

So in an effort to really help the JK2 Community out, I'm starting a thread with intention to have people post what worked for them.

So without further ado, I present the first thread in what I hope will be an ongoing fight against this plague.

#1 what lucasarts suggests. It worked for me and it might just fix your problem. Basically the big one is that your security firewall is doing its job a bit too well. So head here FIRST if you've got a firewall on your computer.

#2 It has been suggested the ATI's new drivers sucketh much ass concerning server downloads. So if your game started having this problem right around when you got the new drivers, then you may wanna try rolling your drivers back to an earlier update.

#3 delete you jk2mpconfig.cfg file and let the game reset it. Sounds like a plausible solution (I'd still back the file up just to prevent problems though).

#4 well this is up to you guys. These are the suggestions that I have found so far and I really want this thread to expand so let's get cracking on those solutions guys.
