All of the following commands will work with all versions of mirc, however, we recomend that you use the
latest version, version 6.03.
Not all servers require identD to be enabled. Some do, some do not. And sometimes this changes from day to day and may not be reflected on this page.
Mirc is set to abort the connect attempt if not connected in 45 seconds. Sometimes it can take up to 5 minutes to connect to your favorite server. To get around this, we offer the following suggestion:
Go to Menu...File...Options...Connect...Options and enable "Connect Retry" and set "If not connected in ___ secs" to 300. Also, disable try next server in group.
Note: Due to a bug(?) in mirc, the 300 second timeout will not go into effect until the second attempt (first retry).
Notice the list of servers below: There are only 7 servers that you need try connecting to as all the others are either dead or will forward you to another server in the active 7. Yes, this number (7) will change all the time, and this page may not be updated each time it changes.
Not all server accept connections on the same ports. As far as we can tell, there is no rhyme, reason, or pattern to which server allows connections on what ports. Therfore, you
MUST use a port listed for the server to which you are trying to connect.
To connect to a specific server use:
/server IP:port
Server will connect faster if you use IP instead of Server Name.
To get Server IP use reference below or
/dns <Server Name>
If you try to connect to a hub, it will either try to connect you to an active server or will refuse connection. Therefore, you should remove all the hubs from your active servers list.
