    New problem connecting to IB

    I have been successfully connecting to IB for months, haven't changed anything, yet last night and this morning I am getting an error trying to connect.

    The error in my log is:

    Interactive Brokers: IB Adapter.MessageLoop A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to re(Panic)

    Hello Grasul, what NT7 and IB TWS versions are you using in this setup?

    Could you please retry on a freshly setup IB account connection?



    Would you then see the same error returned to you?

    In this case, please contact us via Help > Mail to Support and then mention this thread please in the subject.

    Thanks,

      I am using NT 64-bit 7.0.1000.8

      IB: 922.6b

      I have used Help > Mail to Support, you guys should have it now.

        To clarify and follow up for any other readers here, the issue was resolved by setting the NT IB account connection to use 'localhost' as host value.

        Good trades all,
