i just thought i'd ask the dumb question, because i have had NO problems up till tonite connecting. now i can't connect.

i am on a small ISP, they would have said something. i have no firewall, i just talked to tech support today to ask them about hooking up a router, but i couldn't get it to work last nigth, so i disconnected. i tested via telnet, and it just hung and eventually after a few minutes said 'connection refused'

i'm sure it's something on my end, but i thought i'd ask the dumb question about the whole network maybe being down...

could my changes in my router/networking temporarily have disabled it?

sorry for the ramble!
