I am having trouble with teleporting

I need some help with teleporting please?  It does not seem to be working right.

Maturity Settings

It is possible the land you are trying to access has a maturity rating other than the rating set in your own Preferences. If you are unable to change the maturity rating in your Preferences to a similar rating set on the land you are trying to access, please search:  How to become verified as an Adult for information about account verification, and Maturity ratings: an overview for general information. It is necessary to have the latest Viewer 1.23 or higher to access Adult settings. Download the latest Viewer.

• Tip: If you are not sure of the Region maturity rating for the land you are trying to access, open the World Map by clicking the Map button on your Viewer task bar. Search for the Region. Hold your cursor over the Region on the map to see the maturity rating.

 

Take Off Attachments

An attachment you're wearing might be preventing you from teleporting successfully.

   2. Select Take Off from the pie menu.

   3. Select Detach All.

   4. Try to teleport to your destination.

   2. Type in "Pooley".

   3. Click Search.

   4. Select Pooley from the list.

   5. Click Teleport.

Fly Up, then Teleport

 

Your current location may be preventing you from teleporting successfully.

   1. Fly to an altitude of 200 meters.

   2. Try to teleport to your destination.

 

Unusually restrictive firewalls block teleporting

If your firewall is blocking outbound TCP port 12043, then teleporting, viewing the World Map, crossing regions, and related activities won't work. See this article for more details.

Turn Down Maximum Bandwidth

 

Bandwidth settings might be responsible for an unsuccessful teleport.

   1. Select Edit > Preferences.

   2. Click the Network tab.

   3. Turn down your Maximum Bandwidth setting. If your Maximum Bandwidth is "1500" kbps, try setting it to "500" kbps.
