Today I tried getting started in VatSim, down loaded the files and installed. I joined ZOB and got all of their files ok. I also loaded up AFV for the audio. I actually have 2 problems I can't figure out. The first is I can't connect to USA-East, however I can connect to Canada, USA Eat gives me an error message "wrong CID/password". The second problem  is when I try to connect my AFV while I'm connected to Canada I get an error "Connection forbidden". What am I doing wrong? While connectI can see traffic moving on scope ok.

Thanks in advanced

Rick

There is about a 4 hour lag for the servers to sync up before you can connect. If you can't connect by this time tomorrow open up a help ticket with the membership department.
