| Mushclient Users: Please Clean Your IP Cache!, posted on Wed Sep 18 08:06:56 2024 | | Posted by: Pit | | Category: General | Hello all,
If you are using Mushclient and find yourself unable to connect to Discworld later today, we advise that you go to File => World properties, where you may find a button "refresh cached IP", which you should press!
Explanation: the MUD is always reachable on discworld.starturtle.net, but to deal with network issues, we sometimes have to change which IP this address points to.
Unfortunately, some MUD clients -- of which Mushclient is the commonly used one -- cache the IP you have connected to before, and would therefore miss the redirect. This can be bypassed by clearing the cache.
If you are using another client and find yourself unable to connect later, please make sure that you are connecting to discworld.starturtle.net, and that neither your client nor your computer is caching the IP address somewhere.
