    Hi all,

    I am currently in UK. I play Battlefield 2 online. I want to connect with my friends in South Africa. The IP and servernames I am given is the following:

    -= SGS BF2 CLAN Server =- 196.4.79.63:16567
    -= SGS BF2 RANKED I Server =- 196.4.79.20:16567
    -= SGS BF2 RANKED URBAN I Server =- 196.4.79.31:16567
    -= SGS BF2 RANKED URBAN II Server =- 196.4.79.28:16567
    -= SGS BF2:AF RANKED Server =- 196.4.79.43:16567
    -= SGS BF2:SF RANKED Server =- 196.4.79.6:16567

    I have Punkbuster installed and updated. I DO NOT have patch 1.41 installed, yet. Going to do that tonight when I am on faster connection.

    I can not even SEE the servers when I go to Multiplayer. And if I use "Connect to Ip": it says you have failed to connect. please check your network settings. NOTE: I can see other servers and join them without hassle.

    Is it only the PATCH the prevents me from connecting to them? Or might there be something else?

    That's probably it, patch your game.

    I think you can only see your current patch version servers...
