    Resolved! Can't join server (Axis and Allies).

    ****SOLVED****
    See Torian's response on DNS flush.
    ****************************

    Hi all,

    Well, I can't get the Axis and Allies server to load. Locks up on the "Ready for Battle" screen. Oddly allows me to chose aircraft and loadout, but is pretty much locked up. Loading bar at bottom never shows up. Worked fine last week.
    -Steam CLOD files up to date and integrity verified.
    -Synchronization disabled.
    -Beta opt-in disabled.
    -Versions match.
    -Other servers work fine.
    -Hard restart.
    -Modem restart.
    -Router restart.
    -Emptied game cache.
    -Cycled through 3 server rounds to see if it would reset.

    Nope! Any ideas?

    Hi Zeb,
    Try doing a DNS flush.
    Close Steam and any other open program.
    Run a cmd window as admin then type ipconfig /flushdns then press “Enter“. (be sure there is a space before the slash)
    Then re-connect to Steam and see if u can join the server.

    Thanks Zeb.

    I'm not having problems at the moment, but curious as to what a DNS Flush is, so looked it up, and think this does a good job explaining it:
