Troubleshooting

When trying to connect to CloseCall 5x Service, I get the error message, "CloseCall 5x cannot connect to the CloseCall 5x Service..."
Here is a step-by-step list of things you should verify:

  1. Check that you have successfully connected to CloseCall Internet in your usual manner (e.g. Did your dial-up connection successfully connect to CloseCall Internet?) This step is independent of whether or not you launch CloseCall 5x.
  2. Ensure that the ISP that you are connected to is, in fact, the one that supplied you with the CloseCall 5x software and connection information. In most cases, you cannot connect to another ISP and use the same CloseCall 5x connection settings.
  3. Verify that the Connection information located in the Settings dialog is the same as that provided to you by your ISP.
  4. If you are running firewall software, make sure that a firewall rule is present that allows access to the Remote Server Port (located in the Settings dialog)
  5. Try uninstalling CloseCall 5x (ControlPanel-->Add/Remove Programs and select CloseCall 5x) and then re-install it.
  6. Contact Customer Service (800-249-1984) to verify that the CloseCall 5x Service is up and running.
