[BBB] Sweden #1-5 -JAH-

[tobik]

can't connect to any of the sweden1-5.myftp.org hubs, and the problem is... that i have no idea what might be wrong :). i always get redirected thus getting no messages about the share, slots, full, ip, whatever. and the symptoms are pretty much like in this case:

i really want to acces those hubs, so i'll appreciate any help! B<

I tried those 5 hub and got disconnected every time.

So i don't know what it is about.

You could try to find some info on the network's home page.

If not successful, and if you only get problems connecting with these 5 hubs, the problems must be on their side i guess.

[tobik]

first of all, their home page is offline. and the mysterious part is, that - yes - i only have this problem with those 5 hubs, but there are people on those hubs (moglo showed it), so it is possible to enter them.

maybe they have an ip range for sweden only? that would explain this situation, but theres no info about it. and the redirect aren't followed by any explonaton at all... 8(

[Charalambos]

You're right, their redirects aren't explained.

Also, the reasons for not being able to enter are numerous (ip-range as you said, private hub, only for registered users, full hub, min share not reached, min slots not reached...) as they don't tell you.

If i were you, i would just not bother about these hubs, there are a many other great hubs too.

[tobik]

but they've got the fine house releases that are really hard to get anywhere else B(

tobik, the "[BBB] Sweden X" hubs only allow BBB and SuNET users (though not all). This might be the reason for you being redirected.
