I disabled my fire wall and did a re-install of the game neither worked.   I am not using a wireless router and am logged in as an admin. 


Does anyone know what "NA" means? is it a simple acronym for North America?  or is not applicable?


Any of you all know a fix to join N/A servers?

N/A= not applicable. NA= (possibley) north america

Sounds like you need to install the 1.2 patch.

We can talk on teamspeak if you want.

There is no official 1.2 patch for SWBFII. This topic is meant to be in SWBFII right?

Could the NA be "Not Available" in reference to the ping when listing fire-walled servers?

There are times you strive for greatness, to reach lofty goals and accomplish
noble deeds. Then there's the rest of the times you just want to blow s--- up.



Blowing s--- up since 1978

Many of the NA servers (servers with no ping listed), are running mod packs or sometimes just a modded map.  You cannot join unless you have the expansion pack or particular map that the current server is using.

Thanks I will give the unofficial 1.2 patch a go hope that works.

UEF hosts fws with some modsmaps, so it isnt cause of that.l
Many times its cause of the low host inet and the operating system.

That will change nothing since the Unofficial 1.2 patch for SWBFII is a visual mod (pretty much a skin mod). The author just gave it a fancy name.

Perhaps try installing the unofficial 1.3 patch. That actually changes stuff that helps run some mods etc. Here is the link to r129: http://www.mediafire.com/?pzznah47785jabb

See if that fixes whatever problems you appear to be having.

nothing seems to be working.


The background music does not even stop, the timer comes up gets to 60 and says connection to host lost.


Logging on with GameTracker Lite or Xfire is no help. 


Google searches and the Lucas Arts trouble shooting forums have not had any fixes on this. 


if any one has any other suggestions leme know  :confused: [size=78%] [/size]

Have you tried the old Gamespy trick of making your own server, quitting then joining the NA one?
I play less now but I'll always be around, lets keep this site and battlefront going. :)


If its BF2, don't install the 1.2, get the 1.3 and like they sayed it could be that its a mod map map server and you don't have the maps, if where it says what the map is, is it in YELLOW font
