Can't log in!

[Blackwell]

I can't log in no matter what. Yes, I have downloaded the client and the one by ender. When I start the game (from desktop) it says "cannot connect to server" every time I log in. So I tried logging in from the Salem website and it acts like I clicked the refresh button. If you know the problem please give a step by step instructions on how to solve this. I'm using windows 7 with Firefox browser.

You don't need to log into the Salem website to play the game.

Something (router/antivirus/firewall) is preventing the client from connecting to the game server.

I often experience this as lag, try again a several times or at a different time of day.
