Is it working yet? ???

Well, I've followed the various tips. I've already copied all the UT2004 files from the PC that allow me to connect to the MIA server; but some unofficial servers don't appear in the game's Internet tab. I made this video to show what my tabs look like. And how, when I try to open the MIA server address, the game starts loading but stops. It could be that I need to connect closer to the modem, because it says the connection is lost. I played a little game to show you that the game works individually.

In this video, I demonstrate the problem. I had previously marked the MIA server address in my favorites.

In the news tab you should see the openspy news.
It is not shown in your recording,  UT is trying to reach the old server: 

In the game, open the console (~ key) and paste the following command and run it:
set IpDrv.MasterServerLink MasterServerList ((Address="utmaster.openspy.net",Port=28902))
and relaunch the game. This will update your game automatically.

This will be changed in the UT2004.ini

[IpDrv.MasterServerLink]
LANPort=11777
LANServerPort=10777
MasterServerList=(Address="utmaster.openspy.net",Port=28902)      <----- This is the new master server


Check:
You should see the servers in the internet tab

If not I think there is a rights issue. (you can not write in the unreal directory)

I've found a reason for some of these connection issues. I've updated the server and https://miasma.rocks/downloads/3369_u_files.zip.

Hopefully this should clear up a lot of the conection problems.
