I can't get online. Keep getting "Connection Timeout" error message each time I try to connect.  :'(

OMG! I hope I'm not slipping into the cannot use GPB online category because of connection problems??? This is happening on other servers too, though if I keep trying I can get on only one other right now.  :o :'( :'(

ports open? firewall?
I stopped gaming (and GP-Bikes)

Very odd indeed I think another player has same problem but I have no idea why. There are 5 already on? 
Can you get on GPBOC 2 server at SPA?

???

Yes I can connect to the Spa Server. I tried that as a test and it worked but just cannot connect to this server at the moment.... not tried any others today as yet.

Never had to mess around with the firewall or router ports before as they register automatically unless I specifically list them as dangerous. Also windows will pop-up a window for me to accept connections if a connection authorisation is required.  ;)

The only thing that I can think is different is the track.

Here is a link to the identical track the server is running in case you have a corruption there? Doubt it is the reason but worth a try?

Don't forget if you installed Beta 8 and haven't checked behind your window for the connection authorisation checkbox you will get Connection Timeout. **

Also if you accidently have 2 x Core.exe running.

Edit: **And if you missed it or rejected it you might have to restart your PC and do it again (thx Hawk)

restart PC and try again Hawk and Matty are now both able to get in. If that fails connect to another server and come back again.

Gawd knows whats up tbh.  ::)
