General Voyager issues

Voyager was originally designed to provide an out-of-the-box solution for Acorn users connecting to the Argonet ISP service. As such it was relatively restrictive in that all the various settings were fixed for connecting to Argonet so that there was nothing the user could mess up by mis-configuration or typing something incorrectly.

In order to connect to Orpheus and still use Voyager you have to upgrade Voyager so that it correctly recognises the new Orpheus server and doesn't try to connect to the old, and no longer working, Argonet servers.

Please run the VoyUpdate utility to convert from Argonet Voyager to Orpheus Voyager.

Possible problems encountered

A number of possible problems may be encountered when using !Voyager on Orpheus, not least because Voyager was originally intended to work only with Argonet. However, we are striving to allow compatibility as much as possible. The following pages might help with any problems.

Voyager stalling just after connecting to Orpheus.
