Any specific error message given in MIRC or just "unable to connect to server" ?

[dr jones]

unable to connect to server

unable to connect to server

The chat link on the site is working for me so the server & channel is definetly up & running.

It's wierd how it's not working on MIRC, Java Chat or the browser based stuff for you thats just some bizarre shit going on there.

I know this sounds obvious but I take it you can still login to the site with your user / pass ?

[dr jones]

yes i can log in and download torrent but i can not connect to the irc channel :(

[Time-Traveller]

That's weird, have you tried rebooting your router / pc ?

Simple but effective sometimes

[dr jones]

yes,i have try that,but still cant connect

[Time-Traveller]

Try turning your firewall off and see if you can connect

[dr jones]

still cant connect

[Stevis]

can you connect to other irc servers?

[dr jones]

yes i can

This is probably because you try to connect to the regular IRC port 6667, but TL uses port 7011. Try this command instead /server irc.torrentleech.org:7011

[dr jones]

it work,thanks :)

Glad you got it fixed, still can't understand why the Java client on the site wouldn't let you in though :S
