Yeah, depending on your computer you might also need to manually set the connection to the sonic team servers. I did, but then again my PC is severely messed up.
It's best to stick to official servers, you might see private ones floating about but I'd warn you away from those. They don't tend to have the community, stability and many other things the official severs provide.
Although many say the official servers have bugs that allow people to exploit the game, I'd say you're even more likely to find people exploiting the game on private servers, how could you know - anyway?
And the other thing, if that server goes down, say the person running it decides he needs the space for a counterstrike server, your character is going bye bye and because you're taking part in something outside the law you cant expect the law to help you.
