Hi James,

 

what SIM and what client are you using? Have you updated the server IP addresses? VATSIM has replaced all of its servers and new IP addresses have come into effect. There are several topics on the forum that are discussing this already, for example this one: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=79289&p=535002

 

I hope that this information will solve your issues.

VATSIM is not a client. VATSIM is a network that uses software, called clients, to connect your computer to the network. The following are examples of pilot clients: vPilot, xPilot, XSquawkbox, swift.

 

Are you still having an issue where you frequently get disconnected? What client are you using? Can you describe your internet setup? (e.g. are you on wifi, connected to a router, etc.)? Have you rebooted your router lately? Are you getting disconnected after having already been connected for a while, or are you not able to ever make a connection to VATSIM?

 

All of these are important pieces of information to help troubleshoot your issue.
