Post subject:  Disconnects

I'm constantly being disconnected from synirc.

I have tried using different clients. mIRC, Chatzilla, and the java one. The java one tells me I have disconnected when conversations suddenly die down, while mIRC and Chatzilla leave me to wonder if nobody is talking or I have disconnected.

Anything I can do to stop this?

Not many people have this problem.

Hmm...>_>

I've seen you disconnect a lot.

Does your internet ever hiccup or anything?

Get off DSL?

I dunno. It might be a firewall issue, but that's unlikely.

My internet doesn't "hiccup"

The only thing disconnecting is IRC. Everything else is normal.

Then it seems like it would have to be some strange firewall or something. >_>

Ok, so should I forward some ports? What are the numbers?

IRCs port is open by default. It shouldn't need to be opened. If someone has closed it, they are smart enough to keep you from opening it. For reference, IRC without SSL is 6667.

This has to be a problem with your ISP. Shitty connectivity. Call your ISP and complain about connectivity issues.

It's not open by default if I have a router.

As I said, my connectivity is fine. IRC is the only thing with a problem.

Other programs deal with losing connection.

IRC doesn't.

False. Routers only close specific, unassigned ports. IRC is assigned a port, and as a result, is open.

Now your parents might have closed that port, and if they were smart enough to close it, they were smart enough to keep you from reopening it.

Use a server like ircatwork and see if you still get the same connectivity issues.
