Greetings,
Here is a simple way to test the connectivity for PC Client users from a PC to a MXit server using the Telnet command:
   1. Open a Command Prompt window (START button >Run… -or- Window-Key + ‘R’) and type in “cmd” (without the quotes) and hit OK. A Black window screen will appear with some Microsoft Windows information.
   2. Execute the Telnet command by typing the following:
         1. telnet pc.stream.mxit.com 9119
   3. The following should result:
         1. If a connection was successfully established, then the command prompt window will be cleared of any text (leaving a black window). To exit, press Ctrl + ‘]’, and then ‘q’.
         2. If a connection was unable to be established, then a message similar to “Could not open connection to the host, on port 9119/8080: Connection failed”

Additional notes:
    * If port ‘8080’ doesn’t work, try port ‘80’ as an alternative.
    * Vista users may need to install Telnet as an additional application (which was installed as standard with previous versions of Windows).
    * Users may need Administrator privileges to run the Telnet command.
