I've been trying on and off for 2 hours to try and get connected to #amiga.org on IRC, and having no luck at all.

I've tried Trillian and mIRC (yes I'm using a PC - it's not through choice) and both come back with the same reply:

*** Couldn't resolve hostname

This happens on arena.webchat.org and irc.webchat.org.  I even tried NeoFree's website (http://amiga.hostingmountain.com) to get connected and got basically the same result.

It's not that I can't connect to #amiga.org, the problem is getting connected to any IRC client.

Does anyone know why this is happening?


Sometimes the IRC servers I go on can't be resolved. I then always change the port to connect to. 6666, 6667, 6668, 7777 etc.. Usually works, but not always.
