Can't connect to server...

I'm sorry if this is in wrong place but... need help... Have been running the mac-only game Oberin, which is an online game I connect to via server. However, a couple of days ago, it simply stopped letting me connect. The game server is definitely up and running & other players can get on, and the administrator can log on with my details, so something has changed in my settings... Any ideas? Have even tried reinstall of OSx but to no avail. Is it something port related? I really know very little about how all this works... All advice appreciated, and sorry again if this should be posted elsewhere...

p.s. in sharing, the firewall settings appear to be off, so everything should be getting through (?).
 
Are you using a router? I ask because some router can block ports. So please list any router you maybe using?
 
thanks for replying. As far as i know i have no router. I would know if I had one, I assume? I'm using my home Ibook g4, thru ethernet (i think). It must be a port problem, I guess, but i have no idea how or why or what to do...
 
Right. I DON'T have a router. Apparently. Am connected via a cable modem + ethernet cable. But there IS a router address in system prefs, for what that's worth... can anyone make head or tails of this?
