Odin616 Posted June 4, 2023 Report Share Posted June 4, 2023 (edited) Hi I used to play on this server quite often then took a brief few month hiatus on gaming & now I just tried to connect to the server to play again & it just keeps timing out & refusing to allow me to connect... To my knowledge I have never had any issues on the server or with any of the admins...in fact everyone has always been totally cordial so I am kinda lost as to why I am unable to connect yet can connect to other servers no promblemo... Certainly does not seem as though I've been banned for some reason... Please assist. Thank you. As a matter of fact I seem to be unable to connect to ANY RustEZ servers for some reason..., Pure, Survival or Scourge...why is this? Just continually times out when ever I try.

Staff TiffDust Posted June 6, 2023 Staff Report Share Posted June 6, 2023 Doesn't sound like a ban. With a ban you get a message in the dialog box popup on being disconnected. Start up Rust through Steam. Hit f1 at the menu and type client.connect then copy and past the relevant IP address to the server you wish to join e.g client.connect 199.231.233.63:29013 US Pure connect 199.231.233.63:29015 US Survival connect 199.231.233.63:29014 US Scourge connect 199.231.233.63:29013 EU Pure connect 64.52.81.172:29015 EU Survival connect 64.52.81.172:29014 EU Scourge connect 64.52.81.172:29013 AU Pure connect 139.99.144.127:28015 AU Survival connect 139.99.144.127:28014 AU Scourge connect 139.99.144.127:28013 Are you able to join any other Rust servers? If not it could be a firewall issue. Let us know how you go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin616 Posted June 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) First of all thanks for tryin to assist with this TiffDust.. So I just tried to connect directly instead as you'd suggested and still the same situation...just keep throwing me a time out error's... Continually hangs on "Connecting" for a few mins then just says either: "Disconnected: Disconnected"...or "Disconnected: Connection Attempt Failed" . Retry reconnecting only to repeat the selfsame error's over & over. Edited June 7, 2023 by Odin616 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin616 Posted June 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 have there been any IP range ban's made by any chance? Unlikely I know but perhaps I got caught in the "net" too so to speak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G 11 Posted June 7, 2023 Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 all mines saying is steam auth time out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin616 Posted June 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 (edited) Ahh so apparently I ain't the only one...issue with steam services perhaps? Either way the answer is lost to me at the moment... Edited June 7, 2023 by Odin616 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff TiffDust Posted June 7, 2023 Staff Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 There's a current steam maintenance issue, Steam runs maintence tuesday/wednesday and seeing this can happen: Although a steam auth issue can also look like a crash, playing Rust one minute and the next it's gone (no messages.) Rust is aware of steam auth issues atm and is looking into (this is Rust wide issue and not just RustEZ.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff TiffDust Posted June 7, 2023 Staff Report Share Posted June 7, 2023 it's not the best time right now because steam is being poo. But If you hit windows key and R to open the Run box. Type cmd and hit ok button. In the command line we just opened run these commands separately in order: ipconfig /release ipconfig /flushdns Then restart your PC.

Staff TiffDust Posted June 14, 2023 Staff Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 it sounds like it could be a firewall issue, do you run nortons or anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin616 Posted June 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) Nope just my regular ole windows firewall & antivirus & the games all forwarded through it so shouldnt be an issue & never usewd to be an issue either until recently...I used to play the Scourge server pretty often then went to play again after a coupole months & refuses to connect...from what I am seeing there are quite a few individuals having the selfsame if not simular issue as well. I am clueless as to what the issue is now. Edited June 15, 2023 by Odin616 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin616 Posted June 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 So a little update I had the idea to try & download a free VPN to see if it would allow me to connect VIA a different IP, etc & sop I connected through an IP in the Netherlands using a free VPN & low & behold it connects!!! Thing is it is a free VPN & so the bandwidth is extremely throttled to the point that games are unplayable & I am STILL unable to connect via my regular IP address... Hopefully this sheds some light on the issue here so it can be resolved as soon as possibnle. Thanks for your assistance thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
