When I fire up DROD (JtRH) I see the latest announcement scrolling across the bottom. Thus I should be connected to CaravelNet . . . however. It appears that neither my game progress for the last several days has been uploaded, and when I hit F6 to invoke the demo screen, I'm told "Not connected to CaravelNet."

This is all very Zen-like. What do I need to do to get back full connectivity? Thanks -

Two things: First, the text will scroll regardless if you ever did connect.

Second, check the topright corner. What symbol do you see? If it is just a gray background, then you aren't connected. If it is a green background, then it is connected, but not logged in. If it has a red X, then go Settings->Request new CaravelNet Key. Then check you're email. If it has a green check, then you are connected.

And if you *aren't* email, then don't panic, it's not the end of the world.

Sorry, I couldn't resist...

That was it . . .

Teach me to equate motion with connectivity.
