Greetings,
Here is a simple way to test the connectivity for PC Client users from a PC to
a MXit server using the Telnet command:
1. Open a Command Prompt window (START button >Run… -or- Window-Key + ‘R’)
and type in “cmd” (without the quotes) and hit OK. A Black window screen will
appear with some Microsoft Windows information.
2. Execute the Telnet command by typing the following:
1. telnet pc.stream.mxit.com 9119
3. The following should result:
1. If a connection was successfully established, then the command
prompt window will be cleared of any text (leaving a black window). To exit,
press Ctrl + ‘]’, and then ‘q’.
2. If a connection was unable to be established, then a message
similar to “Could not open connection to the host, on port 9119/8080:
Connection failed”
Additional notes:
* If port ‘8080’ doesn’t work, try port ‘80’ as an alternative.
* Vista users may need to install Telnet as an additional application
(which was installed as standard with previous versions of Windows).
* Users may need Administrator privileges to run the Telnet command.
