Minecraft Forums

So I have been trying to fix this issue for over a week now. Everytime I try to login to Minecraft it says cannot connect to minecraft.net. I have tried the following:

trying to login in on a different computer - worked
disabling firewall/antivirus temporarily - did not work
checking internet connection - connected at 4 bars almost always
trying to login through the technic launcher - did not work
having a friend try to login on my computer - did not work
checking the status of the minecraft.net login server - up and healthy
deleting bin folder - did not work
deleting .minecraft - did not work
updating java - did not work

So i don't know what else to try. I'm fairly certain it's a computer problem but can't figure out what it would be.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Also i should add that the client was unmodified and had been running perfectly fine until a bit over a week ago.

You know that never occured to me to do that. And i recently learned about that in my networking class XD

Anyway, ping times out and i get a 100% packet loss. Tracert is fine until it hits 15 when it starts timing out.

Unfortunately I don't have that class all next week and would like to solve this before that. Any links or advice to get me on the right track? I sent a message to mojang a couple days ago and they have yet to respond.

Bump because the problem hasn't been solved and still require assistance.

Okay I tried doing everything on that post and still nothing. My firewall/antivirus is with eset and it has never caused a problem for as long as I've had it. I tried disabling it and stopping it in task manager anyway. The hosts file did not have anything in it except for the commented out stuff. I then tried to get a new launcher and that did not work.

bump. please help if you can.

Just started up my MC to see if i could try and login today and noticed a message in a red box. It says something about there service provider amazon being out and causing problems at certain endpoints. I believe this has something to do with my issue. If not then I will repost when the problem on mojang's side is fixed.

I see. Well I am hoping that after this crash that the problem will be fixed because I remember seeing the amazon server on the tracert then directly after that failed.

I'm having a problem like Ares. The difference is that I get no red box. I simply get the "Cannot connect to minecraft.net" message. I too have tried everything I've read in the forums. I've downloaded the client several times. I purchased the game. I've updated Java. I've updated my video drivers. I've tried connecting with my anti-virus turned off. I've gone through the host files. I really don't know what else to try. I can connect through the website, but it pauses and takes me to the menu while I'm trying to get wood or mine. Help!

Red box? I don't get a red box... I am fairly certain it is my computer but cannot think of what else to try since I can login on another computer in the house. I am getting quite tired of this.

OH MY GAWD! IT WORKED! Thank you! Thank you!

OMG! You are a god among men!

Now how would I get tekkit to work?

Yeah it doesn't work. I've tried plenty of times.
