lol this is the first game that i have tried. what does a trace do and what does it mean?

I have cable. I am at a university...how do i do a trace? thanks

Hi sorry about not being in the technical support... Ok. in my directory server addresses list, the only thing I have down is "sscentral.sscuservers.net". When i click download, it reads: "sscentral.sscuservers.net [0%]" for a minute, then a box pops up reading "Unable to retrive new zone listing. Make sure you are using one or more valid directory server addresses. Also, make sure you are directly connected to the internet." Now for the second problem. The only way i can get a zone list with for example "extreme games", i have to reinstall continuum. when i actually get a list for the first time, like i said, they are all red, with REALLY high pings. (like in the 8000's). When one zone goes green (for max 15 seconds), i click on it. It brings me to that "star screen" for a minute, then a box comes up and reads: "failed to connect to server. Check to make sure server is online (it should appear yellow or green on the zone list) and that you are currently connected to the internet." Thankyou for the replies so far, and hoping i can play soon, Brien

I played subspace back in 1999. i was only about 10 years old. Yesterday i looked for subspace on the internet. (i didnt remember the name of it, but i found it eventually). I downloaded version 4.0. There is one small problem...i CANT GET INTO A ZONE!!! I read the fourm, and i have seen people with simmilar problems. The zones are red most of the time, with the odd few turning green off and on, and when i click on a green one, it goes to that 'star' screen for about a minute, and then tells me that i cant connect with the server, and to check my connection. That pisses me off, because I just got to university, and i have a fast connection. Ive tried turning off my firewall, that does not work, and when i exit continuum, the zones dissapear. After i try to restart continuum, it gives me a familiar message when i try to get the zone list. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE? I WANT TO PLAY TOOOO!!!!
