XP3Rim3nt posted this solution to play online in a C&C forum. It worked for me.... I am online. Too bad there aren't more people :/ Follow these instructions to get online.... Let's get some games going 🙂
From XP3Rim3nt:
Following on from Whizadree's post I can offer a solution which will get you playing online again.
Whizadree is correct, its the HTTP patch server that is down, the gamespy login servers are working fine but red alert will not even attempt to go online until it validates the current version is up to date.
1) Open the start menu
2) type notepad
3) right click notepad and click run as administrator (for Win 8 users Run as Administrator appears at the bottom of the screen when you right click)
4) when notepad has opened go to File > Open
5) go to "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc"
6) on the bottom right of the open dialog where it says "Text Documents (*.txt)" click and change it to "All Files (*.*)"
7) You should now see a file called "hosts", double click on it
8) at the bottom of this file add the line: "109.74.193.57 na.llnet.eadownloads.ea.com"
9) save the file and close notepad
10) start RA3 and you should not get the server error.
11) Once the patch server has come back up at some point in the future you can remove that line from your hosts file, follow the same instructions above exacpt delete the line at step 8 instead of adding it.
-----------------------------join 3v3 magma ! 🙂1) Abra el menú Inicio 2) escriba notepad 3) Haga click en la libreta y haga clic en Ejecutar como administrador (para Win 8 usuarios en Ejecutar como administrador en la parte inferior de la la pantalla al hacer clic derecho) 4) al block de notas ha abierto vaya a Archivo> Abrir 5) vaya a "C: \ Windows \ System32 \ Drivers \
etc "
6) en la parte inferior derecha del cuadro de diálogo abierto, donde dice "Documentos de texto (*. txt)" hacer clic y cambiar a "Todos los archivos (*. *)"
7) Ahora debería ver un archivo llamado "hosts" , haga doble clic en él
8) en la parte inferior de este fichero añada la línea: "109.74.193.57 na.llnet.eadownloads.ea.com "
9) Guarde el archivo y cierre el Bloc de notas
10) inicio RA3 y usted no debe tener el servidor error.
11) Una vez que el servidor de parches ha llegado una copia de seguridad en algún momento en el futuro, puede eliminar esa línea de su archivo de hosts, siga las mismas instrucciones anteriores exacpt eliminar la línea en el paso 8 en lugar de agregarlo. ----- ------------------------
