The server IPs have changed. Check the IP address and make sure its correct with the ones from this post

Me, too. "Connection timed out" message for several days now. This is the IP address I have:
66.23.201.46
I have done a clean install and loaded the UK/US patch. The IP I try is 66.23.201.134 but still not connecting.

Could you please try to ping 66.23.201.134 ?

Have you checked your windows firewall to make sure its not blocking that IP ?
"Does not work" is an error report for a bug between keyboard and chair.

Still getting "timed out" message. Firewall allows MOHAA, and I have tried the other MLS servers' addresses, but not getting a connection.
HELP! Any ideas, anyone?? Game began to be hinky in connecting the last few times (would show a map for a second, then reset and show the map in play), and then one day, no connection at all.
I'm starting to have MOHAA withdrawal symptoms.......shaky hands, not sleeping, no appetite........

Thanks Brave Heart!! Nyet, nada, zip. Same results, and I don't understand why. Another clean install (with UK/US patch), restart, new IP, clean shirt/shorts, same result. Got any other ideas?

Did you go to church this sunday?
Jk. Make sure connection type is correct. Also check if windows is blocking the connection.

I just tried LAN, ISDN, Cable, and xDSL connections. Nope. What connection should it use? I tried it with and without using the port #s (12203). My firewall (Norton360) shows MOHAA is permitted, but still get the timed out message. WTF????????
