click on the server box and type in 68.63.109.5 for the server
Go back to main ventrilo window,go into setup,click all three boxes on top left,then click in the box to the right of where it says hotkey and select any button on the keyboard you'd like to use as your talk button.
Return to main window,click connect.

Title: Re: can't get in voice chat
Post by: buzzbee on February 02, 2008, 11:12:41 pm: Which version of ventrilo do you have
It should be this:
http://ventrilo.com/dlprod.php?id=1
Those are words in the white space of the ventrilo window when you launch it
Title: Re: can't get in voice chat
Post by: buzzbee on February 02, 2008, 11:18:01 pm: Double check in the Server Window.
click new:
Type in Beemaster or what ever you wish to call it
Hostname or IP: 68.63.109.5
Port 3784

Check marks in all the boxes below that.

Make sure your firewall allows ventrilo access to the internet

Title: Re: can't get in voice chat
Post by: JP on February 02, 2008, 11:31:51 pm: gonna give it a try now!

....JP
Title: Re: can't get in voice chat
Post by: JP on February 02, 2008, 11:39:58 pm: Ken, I have the new version loaded and when I click connect I get: the HOSTNAME for the selected server could not be resolved to an IP address.

....the hostname was either entered incorrectly or the DNS servers for the specific domain might be offline.

What next,
JP
Title: Re: can't get in voice chat
Post by: buzzbee on February 02, 2008, 11:43:06 pm: Try typing Buzzbee as the host name. 68.63.109.5 as the IP
You shld be able to use any Host name you want but it may be finicky. Not usually this difficult. Hmmmm
