How are you connecting it? Through a PC or router? On a router you'll need to open the ports for it. If using through a PC, you need to let your firewall accept connections through your network card. If using ZoneAlarm, this can only be done in Pro version.

Actually there has been server maintenance in the last 24 hours (Check Ragol.co.uk ), but surely when playing online from Dial-Up to Broadband... all the setting stay the same...dont they?

I switched to cable internet and I'm trying to get on that, there couldnt have been maintenance when I was trying to get on because sheik was on, and I'm connecting my gc directly to the cable modem

You need to make sure you use the right cable. Either crossover or normal ethernet cable. Not sure which you need.
