There have been various reports regarding some Australian players being unable to connect to any ZDaemon service.

The cause appears to be an issue with certain ISP-specific DNS servers.

For whatever reason the domain will not resolve.

One confirmed way to get around this is to make use of the Google DNS servers:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4

If you happen to know a player that is affected by this (typically the website will not resolve), pass the above on.

I couldn't connect anything about ZDaemon (game, forum...)

I have used this method to solve since 2015.

I can't believe that players come from Australia who also have this problem.

Anyway, we can return to ZDaemon now. Smile

Apparently there was a regression.

This is still a problem.

If you cannot connect to the master server, use the alternative DNS servers mentioned in the first post.

Just in case anyone is still monitoring this topic, some changes have been made over time.

I'd recommend checking to see whether previous difficulties have now eased.
