Problem Details:

Everytime i want to play MP and i join a room, i'm unable to press ready, no matter how much i click it, nothing happens, and after a while, i get out of the room and i get the message "

When i join a room and the game starts, it keeps "Waiting for other players" for a while, and then it kicks me out of the room saying that i can't play multiplayer without connecting to Bancho.

the thing is, if i'm disconnected, why i can still rejoin a room and talk to other people on friends list? i don't understand.

Video or screenshot showing the problem:



osu! version: 20141122 (latest)

Have you tried playing on a different connection?

Also make sure your firewall is not blocking connections.

I don't have any other connection avaiable at the moment.

Also i tried adding osu! as an exception to the firewall and even deactivating it just in case, none worked :(

Kick your router

I mean, it's probably something with your router possibly.
I'm not sure what can cause this i'll go ahead and ask

Try on a different connection. If it works on the other connection, it's a router problem most likely.

If you are on a wireless connection, try using a wire instead.

My bad for reposting, i guess i should put a better title for someone else to find it.

The thing is, i'm not in a school like him/her, but the port things may make sense, the problem is that i don't own the router, and as much as i would love to kick it i'm unable to since i'm in a residence.

I guess the restrictions people do these days on the routers for watching porn wreck up some games.

I thought it could be fixed with changing some stuff but this kind of stuff can't be fixed without entering the router sooooo.... it's over for me, i'll deal with it for a while.

Anyways, thanks for the link, didn't think about that, i'll change the title for someone else to see it too if they encoutner the problem in the search bar.
