I typed in a server that i had just found on PlanetMinecraft, so I opened Minecraft expecting to join the server after i clicked on it, but it came up,"Could Not Connect to Host", So I tryed it on a server I had on thenlist before 1.5.1, and i joined, but my connection, if you hold down Tab, was a red bar. Is it just my minecraft?
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Find any server that you havent joined before 1.5.1
2. Type into Add Server the I.P
3. It should say couldnt connect to host

Yes, I have tryed it on an different computer.
I had my cousin try it on his laptop, and still same result.
I also tryed it on a server that my cousin reccomended to me, still same result
1. Many people are reporting that they cannot connect to 0.0.0.0 . This is due to a bug which I am too lazy to link.
2. Technically, 'server.eblanda.com' would be the hostname, not IP address. The IP address would be 98.221.69.52 . I don't know if this would affect connecting.
3. This bug hasn't been reported before, so there is a good chance that there is something with either your configuration or how you are trying to connect. A good thing to check is if you are running the same version of Minecraft as the server.
To answer you,
#1 Ok, Understood
#2 I just got that from their site, i was also using my Ipad, so i couldnt acess the ip at that moment. I do have the correct ip on my computer.
#3 Good idea, but I know they run 1.5.1, because it says on their website...
Have you tried it with any other servers, like maybe one that you know is working? or did you try and find out if that server is working?
This one has lots of potential causes unrelated to minecraft.
