I can log on RemoteHams, but not RCForb

[kd6kwz]

OK, I can log onto RemoteHams fine, I can tune the radios, I can hear signals, BUT; I can't log onto RCForb. I get an "Invalid user name or password" message.

I'm using the same user name & password as RemoteHams, is that why? I am General Class, so I'm eligible to transmit here.

I'm using Firefox 10.0, Win XP SP 2, Unreal streaming player, and I have .NET 4.0 & RCForb Client installed.

if you are running XP go to, C:\Documents and Settings\"your user name"\Application Data\RCForb_Client and open the login.txt file and check that your user name and pass word are exactly as they should be. If not delete the file and start RCForb client and fill your RemoteHams user name and password into the boxes and click login. If this still doesn't work can you continue as a guest and load radios? If not it sounds like something is blocking access to the net, firewall maybe.
It would be useful if you could tell us which build of RCForb client you are using.

We got this issue resolved, the problem was within Windows not RCForb Client.

There are several ways to get RCForb to "not see" the internet. First you can open Internet Explorer, and goto "Work Offline" mode. This will make RCForb have trouble seeing the internet / connecting to website. Also if under Internet Options in the Connections tab. If the "proxy settings" or anything else in there isn't setup right. RCForb will have this problem.  Screenshots below...
