Spotter not working

Since a few days the spotter stopped working. I deleted the database with no joy. I installed Thetis from scratch with no joy. I installed Thetis on second computer with no joy. I dried to connect via an mobile hot spot instead of may FritzBox7490 via fiber with no joy.

Please help with some hints where to look at. Thanks.

You left a lot of info out. What exactly is not working, the Spotter window, is it not connecting, not seeing spots?
Or is it not displaying on the spectrum?

Does it show connecting:

Will it show spots after a bit:

Dear Gary, thank you very much for your reply. I am very sorry but I could not find the way to include pictures. And excuse me for my late respond. I was on a business trip and after that I was a little bit "down".

What I can see is exactly the first picture you posted.

I see no spots and there are no spots in the spectrum.

I would be very glad if someone can point me to the solution.

Are you sure port 7000 is correct?
I tried telnet.reversebeacon.net via telnet, and it connects perfect with the telnet-default-port 23.

Ernst,

thank you for your reply. I changed the port to 23 with no joy. I changed it back to 7000 and after clicking "connect" the spots are there. Funny!
Do you have a nice DX Cluster for phone spots for me?

Thats strange ;-)

I use this one in my logger (LogHX3): dxc.ve7cc.net:23
And this one in Thetis: k1eu.dynip.com:23
