Hi All

 

Can someone please help me to connect to the VATSIM network. I have SB3 and when i put in "rw1.vatpac.org" it says that no server is there.

 

any help would be appreciated

G`Day David,

 

hmmm rw1.xxxxx sounds like a "voice server" to me (but i am happy to be proven wrong)...

 

In the SB3 window - "connect" - there should be a "drop down" option to connect to a "traffic server" - eg. "OCENAIA", "EUROPE-CE", "VATSIM-UK1" etc (or similar, as don't have the program right infront of me)...

 

The voice server settings will then automatically follow - if i recall correctly

 

Cheers,

Norbert, this is correct, rw1.vatpac.org points to the AVSIM voice server and is not the server for SB3.

 

David, when you load SB3 and at the "connect" stage, check at the top of the connection screen and use the drop down box to find the server you wish to connect to. Typically you would select OCEANIA if you are in this region but it doesn't matter which one you use as they are all networked.
