SO i duno if this has anything to do with it but i installled mcafee and since then when i click on the favorites tab in UT it takes a very long time for the servers to load up. The names load up but the ping says 9999 and it wont let me into any. I added the 1v1 server to it and now they dont load up at all I had to go into the site and click on the servier link to get into the -=con=- server.
I put up a pic of what it looks like and it used to load up all my favs at once now just one shows up and i cant even get into it.
If i click on the DM tab all the servers ping up fine. Ive tried refreshing, re-pinging nothin seems to work
Thanks

Sounds like the McAfee firewall. I really have learned to hate McAfee over the past couple of years. I personally use avast.
Try removing or disabling it and see if they show up.
I have to admit that it is odd they show up in the DM list. Make sure in your favs that your query port is always 1 up from your connect port. Example: Connect Port 7777 so query port is 7778.

Go to the favorites tab and right click the server and choose edit favorite. You will see the 2 ports. If they are correct then it maybe the firewall. |

Porforwarding the ports for ut99. like 7777 7778 ect.
If u have a router then this where u can do it. like my router has a firewall built into it from my provider.
here is a link to get u started. http://portforwar...
