Can't connect to UnderNet all of a sudden.

I think it's possible I somehow changed an option but I use UnderNet
all the time and today I can't connect to it at all. I get connection
timeout errors no matter what server I use. I can access the webpage
through firefox so I know it's not that the server is down or blocked.
Can someone help me track down the issue please?

​

EDIT - After hours of searching and reading I was able to figure it
out. I had to disable the setting "Use SSL for all the servers on this
network". Now I'm back at it.

The server where the webpage is hosted does not have to be the server
where the IRC server is hosted

Off topic but who's using undernet now? What kinds of channels is
there?

A lot of people are using it. It's the 4th largest network out there.
There are a ton of great channels.

This was a problem for me today. Unchecked that box in HexChat when in
the server settings window. Thanks.
