Is the Unity Master Server down? and How to build your own master server?

Is the Unity Master Server offline?

When I try to connect to the server (default ip is: 67.225.180.24:50005), but I got an error saying “The connection request to 67.225.180.24:50005 failed. Are you sure the server can be connected to?” and then another one “Failed to connect to master server at 67.225.180.24:23466”. I tried googling this and found out that people had similar problems, aand they said it was because the Unity Master Server was offline. Other people said that you should launch your own Master Server. I found the Unity website for that, downloaded the source code, but I need Visual Studio to build it. So I wanted to download it (Visual Studio Express Preview for Windows (is this the right one?)), but the size of it was 300mb. I’m on a limited connection to 2 Gb, and I cant (for various reasons) download 300mb. Please, is there any other way to do it?

Thanks.

It is possible. Watch this video:
