Connection Issues

Thu Jun 13, 2013 8:47 pm

Brand new here. Server recommended by a friend.

Problem: after putting in address (yes I have checked again and again to make sure it is right) I'm told that Minecraft "Can't resolve host name". (This is for both survival and creative)

If anyone else has had this problem or if anyone has any idea how I could fix this I would be very grateful.

This is a very unusual issue. Are you able to ping our server from command prompt? to do that, open command prompt and then type in ping mc.renmx.com and then hit enter on your keyboard.

Also, try seeing if this page works: http://map.renmx.com and report back if that works. Thanks.

Ok the connection should be working. Make sure you're using a normal copy of Minecraft v1.5.2 and try connecting to survival via: mc.renmx.com:3

If this stops working for you try mc.renmx.com:25565 or survival.renmx.com - we updated our DNS today.
