Hey, I´d like to play TBC once again, and I found this (hopefully) wonderful server, but...
I´m a student living at the college, and there are some restrictions ie most of TCP ports are being blocked. I have used TCPview programme to discover what ports do I need to have opened. It should be port no. 8085 (tcpview screenshot in the attachment), the network administrator claims that this port has been opened, however I still can not log in.
I´d be really grateful for any advice.

8085 is the game server port. 3724 is the authentication server port. That must be opened also to login.

Ah I forgot to mention that... as you can see, connection to auth server is estabilished (2nd line from the bottom). Any other advice? I´m absolutelly clueless, I play at some WotLK servers as well, and I don´t experience problems like this, maybe it works somehow different with TBC?

/e I tried to connect to another TBC server, and it doesn´t work as well, TCPview shows, that I need 3724 and 8085 again, while at WotLK I need different ports for every single server, maybe there are some additional ports which must be opened in order to log in at different servers?

8085 is the default game port, however if you, for example, host multiple servers they need additional ports, eg: 8086, 8087, etc. But we only use the default since we're running just one.
