I can't get on to FlightGear online and offline. I tried to reinstall it and it didn't work.

What do you mean by commandline?
I try to enter the version 2.4.0 but it doesn't work.

I can make a video of it if you want. I don't really know how to explain it.

I don't know Mac, but IIRC you can show the commandline in the "Other" section of the launcher....
That'll show us what setting you run FlightGear with. Most of.the MP issues are caused by mistakes in the settings.

Well. In that video you didn't address the multiplayer issue at all and it looks like you have all kinds of trouble.

Try to uninstall and do a fresh install of version 2.6.

Where possible try the "Standard" button to return to default values (the reinstall could very well still use old settings).

Use the c172p as plane and do not change settings.

Try to connect to at least these multiplayer server and post the settings and results:
mpserver10.flightgear.org
mpserver01.flightgear.org
You may try all server numbers from 01 to 10.
