First time connection problem

Post by dental1 »

Hi
when I press the connect button, the status window says sending login info and nothing else happens. I filled out the connection screen. What am I missing?
thx Lee

Hello again
I am not able to connect and am getting a message saying that it is unable to locate aircraft position. The sim is not paused.
thx Lee

Make sure the aircraft is in an ATC non-movement area before trying to connect - if you're on a taxiway or runway you won't be able to connect to the network.

I wish that was the case, but his reason for not being able to connect would not have to do with being on a movement area. The server doesn't detect that. I'm not sure what fixed his issue, but that wasn't it.
