[Opensim-users] Why do I get "Region too far" when using hypergrid?

Information about this viewer bug:
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-2941
The bug has been revisited by Linden Lab staff sometime in early
December because of the Hypergrid, but they concluded that the
assumption behind this is too fundamental to be acted upon any time
soon. So this is something we have to live with while using LL-based
viewers. But that Jira is still open, so please vote and tell your
friends to vote too. Maybe if enough people want this fixed they will
fix it.
Recently, code has been added to OpenSim that checks for the distance,
so that people don't end up with empty screens after those TPs.
To compensate for this viewer limitation, there are two gateways that
people can use to bridge between grids in lower 1000s and upper 10000s
(which are most grids):
secondlife://ucigrid04.nacs.uci.edu:9003/ (a region at 3000, 3000)
secondlife://ucigrid04.nacs.uci.edu:9007/ (a region at 7000, 7000)
So, hop to the nearest gateway, TP to the other using one of the
teleporters there (or the map searching "Gateway 3000" / "Gateway
7000"), and proceed to wherever you want to go.
