Silkroad Online Forums

ok ive been playing SRO for jus under a year now and never seen this error. i brought a premiun that ran out this morning and during the time i had my premiun i NEVER had any problems with sro. Anyways my premiun ran out and im trying to get back on to get another BUT i cant. firslty it says i can not connect due to server traffic which we all know of. but when it seems i get in i get this error.

failed to connect to server c9

i was on early today but i got DC -.-, i swear SRO has something within the game that DCs people without a premiun becuase i didnt get DC when i had mine and now i suddenly do. any help would be apprieceated. just to let you know i havent changed anything to my pc at all.

This error occurs when the client cannot connect to the agent server. This happens most commonly when your firewall program does not allow access to Silkroad, or interferes with the running of the Silkroad client. Please check your firewall settings. If you do not have a personal firewall program installed, it may be a firewall program used by your ISP Internet Service Provider. Please contact your ISP service. If you are using a router with a firewall, you need to configure your firewall settings to allow Silkroad.
1 Check firewall settings.
2 Sro_client.exe, silkroad.exe, Gameguard.des must all be permitted to access the internet.

Code: Select all

So far, the only thing thats been found about this error is that its caused due to blocked access. So what you have to do is make sure you either DISABLE any firewalls you have running that includes Window's Firewall.  External programs such as ZoneAlarm or First AID will also need to be closed. Also most Anti-Virus Programs now have built in worm protection/firewalls. Either allow access to silkroad through those programs or disable the option.

To Disable windows firewall.
