Main Installer is a tricky lady, personally I could never get it to work.
Have you made sure the IP and Ports are correct?
IP: 176.9.105.171
Port: 2238
If this continues to be a pain in the arse use this....

... use the experimental one from Wipe, make a new folder for the new client or whatever, check out the configs and add paths to the Critter.Dat and the Master.Dat and then try to run "FOnline" and it will ask for "d3dx9_42.dll" or something like that, it should be in the folder created by the first installer you got, place it in the new folder and while your at it throw the manual updater in there too and you should be able to party. I ain't no expert but that is how I got mine to work. The installer should work and you should be set.

It's better to use "fonline2238.net", because domain name is less likely to change than IP.
