Registration Timeout - Can't connect

I hope this board is still active because I can't connect to get into the help room. :)

When I try to connect, nickserv tells me that my nick is registered and protected. I can't successfully identify. I then get disconnected with an Operation Timed Out message. Other people in the chat rooms see me connect and timeout, but I never see the rooms on my side.

Help! I've been in these same chat rooms for probably a decade now and haven't recently changed any settings in my irc client. I checked my ip on the ban lists suggested and it doesn't look like I'm on any of them.

Heya, what is the current irc info to connect to these rooms?

My apologies for the long overdue reply. Fortunately, I think we addressed varin's issue over email in February. I'll post responses for anybody who might have these questions in the future.

varin: If I remember correctly, your ISP starting blocking port 6667. However, when you connected to Chat Solutions using an alternate port (6599), it worked. And when you connected from a different wifi network using port 6667, it worked.

Hado: The address for the IRC server is irc.chat-solutions.org.
