MIRC Setup

There are two methods in mIRC to connect to a ScoutLink Server.

Method #1:

Using the command /server [server-address] or /s [server-address]. Replace [server-address] with one of ScoutLink server address. You can see the list in ScoutLink Servers page.

Example of using the /server command: /server chat.scoutlink.net

Another example presented in the picture below:

Method #2: Using mIRC Options:

1. Click the Tools menu, click Options, and then click Servers. Or press Alt + E

2. Click the Add button (see a list of buttons on the right side). A new window will

appear (the Add Server window).

3. Write ScoutLink in the Description box.

4. Write one of ScoutLink server address chat.scoutlink.net in the IRC Server box

5. Add 6667 in port

6. Press the Add button. You will be brought back to IRC Server list. You will also

notice that a new IRC Server called ScoutLink is now added to the list.

7. Select the ScoutLink server by click on it once. Then press the Select button on the right.
