Help with VATSIM

(1/3) > >>

EHM-1199 Philip:
OK, so I know I found this tricky the first time and have been away awhile.
I got my number and new password e-mailed to me.
Downloaded squawkbox and AVC.
Opened FS2002
Opened SBHost
Followed the EHM manual in setting up a multiplayer game and then opening squawkbox.
Changed my callsign.
Filed a flight plan.
Tried to connect with the IP address of the UK server taken from ServInfo.
And then ......
It keeps telling me my callsign or password is wrong.
Help ... what am I doing wrong?

EHM-0240 Joe:
I think sometimes not all servers are working. You don't have to pick the one geographically nearest to you, just try all of the ones that are for vatsim and one of them should be working. I think that might be the problem you are talking about anyway, I'm not exacly an expert or anything when it comes to online flying.

EHM-1199 Philip:
Cheers Joe - next time I try I'll try a range of servers.

EHM-1328 Willem:
Choose always the nearest server,

If you what to see wich server is nearest or fastest,   you can use servinfo,  you can see the response time of the servers,  both for IVAO and VATSIM.
You can also lookup here the IP adres of the servers.

Regrards  , Willem.

You must first connect , and then submit your flightplan.
If your on the gate put sq-box in standby.
Keep also the callasign in Fs2002 the same as in SQ-box.
