What do you mean by "hangs"? Is it unresponsible? Can you still issue
commands on it? Is it just waiting for the server to respond?

The page doesn't suggest that. It only suggests that you use the
server's IP address directly. Anyway, have you tried that? You could
try freenode's IP address (84.240.3.129) and see if it works.
