What up!!.. I've been trying to get VRC to connect to the network at school. It dont work. When I go to connect, it says connecting then says disconnected. Any Ideas.. Im guessing the school is blocking the port needed.

yes, I know a VATSIM controller who has the same problem at University. It is most likely blocked ports, and you don;t stand much chance of getting them opened so you can play "games" on school computers. Funnily enough, I expec tyou are supposed to be studying on them.

Ryan,

 

Try justifying your VATSIM habit with any coursework the university offers. Use some imagination if there is no aviation program there, but make a convincing case and try selling it to the IT folks. You may get somewhere once they realize you're not playing Doom.

What i'd be worried about is people seeing what you're doing...somehow i'd say there could be a few giggles if you bring a headset along and disturb the day's study
