First, it should be mentioned that freerouter is more than just an 
"auto" router.  Its "manual" routing is what I use almost exclusively 
within that program.  From time to time I will "select" a single part or 
even single pad and ask it to auto route that board subset, but all my 
designs so far have been too complex to get acceptable results with an 
auto router.

However, let it be known that the manual routing within freerouter is 
world class, largely because of the "push and shove" feature.  And 
Kicad's routing, auto or manual, is no match for it, in my experienced 
opinion.

You will need to attach your *.DSN file to a support request and post it 
on the freerouting.net support forum to get help on your issue.  The 
lack of diagnostics within the "freerouter *.DSN loading function" has 
been complained about before and a feature request has been submitted, 
to no effect.
