Can you post the exact error? Are you getting this error with MUSHclient?

The most likely reasons are:


  • You have got the wrong MUD address or port - is this a MUD you have successfully connected to before?

  • The MUD is down.

  • There is a firewall between you and the MUD. This is quite likely if you are at a school, college, or workplace. Firewalls may be configured to stop outgoing connections as well as incoming ones.
