    I know there a a few folks out here who use and are knowledgeable about mIRC.

    I just downloaded the software, and everytime i try to connect i time out. I let it just continue, but when it got to 20+ timeout failures i gave up.

    I can ping most of the servers mIRC is trying to connect to -- am i missing something? There is no section on "Connection Attempt Timed Out" in the mIRC help.

    i don't pretend to know what i am doing -- i just expect software to, well, kind of work and do it for me -- if you know what i mean.

    I had the same problem when trying to connect to othernet. You need to increase the connection time. Go To:

    - File
    - Connect
    - Options

    Change 'If not connected within:' to 180 seconds.
