Local host server: unable to connect

    I've done a clean install of Freelancer on Windows 7 Professional. Ater playing the SP game again for fun, without any problems, I decided to make a server again. But once the server is up and running, I simply cannot connect to it. I get the message that the operation is taking longer then expected etc etc.


    Things I tried:


    - Disable all firewalls.
    - Disable UAC
    - Remove Router (although it shouldn't have anything to do with this)
    - Force a loop-back through the router
    - Run both game and server in several different windows compatibility modes
    - Run Administrator modes


    All without any luck I'm afraid. Anyone else have some idea how to solve this problem?

    Turn off IPv6 at your network adapter.
    If there is still an IPv6 adress displayed in the server list click refresh until you see an IPv4 adress. Then you should be able to connect
