I’ve probably made 4 account’s on different providers and all of them are always either not recognized on my clients, or always in a “connecting” loop. I’m working on creating my own server using Openfire but that’s going to be a while since I can get everything setup and ready.
What providers are there that are stable and recommended to use? I’m sorry if this gets asked a lot, I’m just wondering if this is a common XMPP issue or if it’s an issue on my side.
Update: It seems that the issue was that i had some sort of aggressive DNS block list active on my VPN by accident, disabiling that seems to have fixed everything.
What kind of network are you on? If you use public wifi/corporate network, then some of them might block XMPP ports (namely :5222/tcp and :5223/tcp) and has other very restrictive firewalls
