Ongoing problem with 171.64.65.98

My ongoing fight with 171.64.65.98 is back in full swing. Now when I finish a WU I can't get another WU unless I reboot my computer.

This is beyond annoying.

Please post the top few pages of the log showing the hardware detection and the configuration settings.

Did this actually happen some 8 hours ago or is you clock screwed up?

Rebooting your local machine is not going to change anything at the server-end so it is not a server-issue. This type of problem can be a bear to diagnose. When folding is failing to connect, can you get to the work server using a browser by simply entering its ip address into the url line?

Things that have caused similar problems:

1. A network connection that is being saturated by another application such as running bittorrent. A saturated connection can cause packet acknowledgements to timeout. When you reboot the bittorrent doesn't start as fast as folding so the connection isn't saturated any longer.
2. A poor quality wireless network connection.
3. DHCP address conflicts


I'm sure there are more.

Everything was going fine there for several weeks. I have made no changes to my system or my FAH configuration. I am scrupulous about keeping everything up to date.
FWIW - I build my first PC from parts in 1982.

FAH has no problem getting to the server, just no WU until I reboot. I don't use bittorrent. I don't use a wireless router. The CPU folding hasn't had any problems.

Here is the beginning of my most recent log file.

OK. this is getting old. The moment I complain about something on the forums, the problem goes away. I have made no changes to my system but suddenly I am getting WUs first time, every time.

To who ever solved the problem, my profuse thanks.

Server's do run out of WUs or do have other problems. Pande Group members do check on servers and they can fix either type of problem if they notice it. They also do read the form and could have spotted this topic as another method of discovering the problem.

(Forum Mods/Admins can generally distinguish between server-based problems and problems with FAHClient. When I attempted to figure out when you actually had the problem, that's what I was trying to do, but I wasn't able to complete that process, so I didn't have anything to do with solving the problem.)
