Faced a problem - it is not possible to enter the game server, after a couple of seconds there is a disconnection

Hello and welcome! I recommend you to try Dutchman's solution: 

You will basically need to run that file and restart your computer afterwards. Also, this could be caused by your antivirus, so you could whitelist MTA to run freely within your firewall to see it solves the traffic being blocked.

Thank you. Tell me, can this problem be related to the game client? To other servers - logged in without problems

[Vampire]

If it's happening in one server only, then I assume this might be a problem between you (your connection/ISP) and the server or it's server's side problem.

You could still try doing the solution above to see if it helps.

Executed the file, rebooted the computer. Unfortunately - the problem was not solved

I see. You should probably read/try this as well: https://discord.com/channels/278474088903606273/278521065435824128/599929249868283908  

It contains a file that helps with things like "connection timed out/lost" and CD16 error. But as I mentioned, it's most likely caused by a problem between the server and you as you are getting the error in one server only so it's better to contact the server owner (not sure if that's you).

Gonna quote what was said on discord if you can't join it:

If you're structurally getting "connection timed out/lost", network trouble, download failures, errors like CD16, or other issues that point to networking problems (such as server list not showing any servers), then please try the solutions mentioned in this post and eventually the ones below it before asking for help: - Download netfix.bat (file in this post) and right click it > "Run as Administrator". After it finishes, restart your PC and try again. Make sure to run it as instructed (see picture below) or it won't work. https://i.imgur.com/rp6yCj0.png

If this doesn't work, and it happens on a lot or all servers, do realize you're trying to fix a network issue on your PC (or router) that can have a variety of causes.. some underlying causes are simply not served by this method. The list of potential causes is too big, but you can continue with stuff like checking your firewall, security products etc.. make sure gta_sa.exe and Multi Theft Auto.exe are allowed & whitelisted (both incoming and outgoing traffic) and that your router has no strict internal firewall toggled on.

It would be too complicated to continue on about that last thing in here, but basically: search your router model on Google, on how to log into the configuration page of that specific router.. (usually the DHCP/standard gateway address - you can get it with command prompt > ipconfig /all and go to that IP address in your web browser, e.g chrome), login to your router using the default or unique password (source: also Google for that router model, or the sticker on your router's back.. lift it up physically) and find the firewall level settings to lower or disable it. For more background on getting into your router configuration page, selectively read this topic: https://forum.multitheftauto.com/topic/115141-guide-port-forwarding-in-order-to-run-a-mta-server/ (don't care about the forwarding parts, but only about router login chapter). In the end of trying a lot of things to troubleshoot your network, it is most likely an ISP (internet provider) issue with blocking/dropping game traffic packets, contact your internet provider and report it.

If it happens on 1 server only, then it's likely either on the server's side or a problem between the routing from your ISP/country to that server.. if you know what you're doing, you can open cmd.exe (commandprompt) and type tracert [IP of server that gives you the error]. Either way, you can still try netfix.bat and other troubleshooting in any case, but better report the problem to that server's owner as well.

Alternatively, you can download it from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8kyfbievryrmyz1/netfix.bat?dl=1

I am the owner of a server, recently bought hosting.

Thank you. I will try - later I will report the result

Unfortunately - this also did not solve the problem. I wrote in support of hosting

[Vampire]

Well, unfortunately I ran out of solutions, but imo, everything points to a problem with the server.
