Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using Not sure why Finnn hid this in a spoiler. If you still can't get into Wurm after changing both, make sure you do the test in that link. Edited May 30, 2017 by Kelody 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 I tried changing both the ipv4 & 6, not working for me. Thinking I should have stayed with my original thought to just wait it out. Best o luck, Later all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 After many unsuccessful tries to connect I tried switching to Google DNS and that seems to have done the trick as I was able to login. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 30, 2017 Not working for me....can't seem to ping the address I found in another thread: 194.68.222.111 Anyone that has it working able to confirm that is the right IP and they can ping it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 Thank you. Modifying to manual DNS in my Adapter settings to the google DNS did the trick in Windows 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 17 minutes ago, Pwnin said: link or maybe more discriptive for the computer impared theres a ipv4 i had to do too I was adding info to Finnn's post. I have edited mine to more clearly give the info. I have a feeling that issues with Google DNS might have some country specific situations. Also, a common simple step often overlooked is if adjusting the DNS isn't working, restart the computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 30, 2017 Well.. if you all are online playing Wurm... Maybe a couple of you could make a few screen shots, post them here so I can sort of see what's going on? *sighs* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 If servers are online could you post ip addresses so we can try to insert it in hosts tables? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 30, 2017 1 minute ago, Kelody said: This works for most people: https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using Thanks Kelody... When I look at the page that link points to.. I read this part here... "Caution: We recommend that only users who are proficient with configuring operating system settings make these changes." Then I wonder if its worth taking a chance completely messing up my computer to play a single online game... or maybe just hope/expect the game owners to fix this. I remember this morning (for me here) I clicked the 'Wurm Online' icon on my desktop and I played Wurm Online .. was awesome. One thing I can't help but notice now .. there is something else happening.. something odd, different.. when I click that same icon.. I am not playing Wurm Online. *shrugs* Peace fellow Wurmanians o/ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 I can't login since this afternoon, either, and while I read the things in this thread, I am left no less baffled than before. I have no clue what all these numbers and dots and fixes do or how to implement them or where. Hopefully something will magically fix itself and I can play again.

If your local network doesn't use the .1.xx subnet you will lose all network connectivity. This is why Devs and GMs will not give advice on changing the DNS address. They would be liable for problems caused. Take any advice in this post carefully. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 if it works it works if it doesn't then go back to your normal settings and wait for Wurm to fix the issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 30, 2017 well it appears it doesn't work all the time. I was able to login on two accounts with google public dns servers and it stopped working on relogin. Tried some other dns servers and was able to resolve jenn001...for those who know how to update hosts table this should work 148.251.21.205 jenn001.game.wurmonline.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will be looking at my settings here in a sec, but ... My computer works, my internet works. I can surf the internet just fine. I can play other online games just fine. Why is it I have to go into my computer and modify it's DNS settings just to get this one online game to work? This post is more for the game owners here. Shouldn't there be something the game owners can do. Some settings in their stuff can be fixed to allow everyone to play their game? I mean, instead of each user modifying all of their DNS settings around the world so they can play Wurm Online tonight? Then, when something does return to normal - all these dozens (hundreds? thousands) of users got to go back in again to conduct risky system changes that may have the result of completely messing up their individual computers so they can no longer connect to the internet? I'd prefer it if Wurm Online modified their system so I can play their game.. or post some fix/patch so I can play the game. I would like to play Wurm Online. I do appreciate all your posts here to help me (less computer literate of the Wurm Online population, I guess), I will be looking/reading this stuff. I really would prefer to play Wurm Online (tbh) instead of learning about how to modify my DNS settings. peace 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
