Try changing port numbers. 6667 doesn't always work.

It works for me.
It'll probably help if you post here what error message you're getting...

Port number should be change to 6660, well not "should" but 6667 is an evil number for irchighway =.=
If you typed /server #irc.irchighway.net then it's wrong, irc.irchighway.net is the right one tsk [there are "actually" a lot of people got this T_T] if your server connect automatically then this is not the option :/
Also the client tsk**tsk have i mention icechat takes 3 tries to get in? ;-;

Then it's the port number, connection, etc :/ usually that happens when my local area wire is unplug...
Try the Tools -> Options -> Servers -> IRC Highway and edit the port number or
Tools -> Options -> Options -> Default port number = 6660

Well as Clue and SJ suspected, changed my port from (6660-6669) to just 6660 and it works fine now. Score!!! and thanks 🙂

6660 and 6668 are the ports I usually use for IRChighway 🙂
Cheers, glad you were able to connect.
