AMPLITUDE: Difficulty connecting to servers.

Hey guys,

I tried to set up a game with a friend tonight, but he couldn't sign in to the SOCOM servers (on Amplitude).

He used the IP listed in this thread.

He's also hardwired to his modem, so it can't be a router issue. I'm not sure what it is, but if anyone has any ideas, you're more than welcome to offer some advice! XP

I'm able to sign in since I have a patched version of the disc that automatically forwards me to the SOCOM servers, but yeah. I was thinking that maybe the DNS server host may have gone offline on the odd chance?

Side note: Is there any possible way to link Amplitude netplay to another server after the SOCOM servers go down?

Thanks,

E3E

Not really @ side note, unless someone makes their own SOCOM private server. The chances are pretty low though, and I doubt that many people would be interested in programming one.

That's fairly likely, because Bobz had acknowledged that his server has been experiencing intermittent downtime throughout this summer. I'd suggest for your friend to enter "68.200.209.3" in the Secondary DNS field. That's the IP Address of FreddY's DNS server.

It's down, Failed to Connect on the servers and all his sites are down. Use FreddY's (like Masquarr said) until Bobz is back up.
