Login server Down?

[Profyx]

Anyone else having difficulty?

Edit: NM maybe just me? Back up

[Nilstoniakrath]

Yes, been having this problem the last two days (

[Nune]

I have as well. I did notice that when i had netflix open on my other monitor it seemed to guarantee a crash and a problem logging in, seemed easier when it was closed. Could be nothing but just an observation. You arent the only one though!

[mortanis]

I have been having the issue the last few days myself. Tonight has been far worse though. I crash when zoning, and then receive login error messages, time out messages, and/or character still logged in messages. I've checked my connection speeds on my side of the network, and everything appears to be fine. :(

[EQBallzz]

Getting this as well. I got a rez and it took like 5 full minutes to zone after rez. After which I was group bugged and nobody could see me in group anymore even though on my screen it looked like I was grouped and they could see my group chat (and I got XP from kills). Tried to relog to fix it and now I just get a blank server select screen and can't log in. Also got an "unknown error" when trying to log in.

[Gremel]

same, blank server list. i got in once after a crash and it said my spell files were out of date, closed it and logged back in and had 0 chars listed, closed it opened again and had a normal screen, but hung on log in to game

J/w do u guys have ATT internet service by chance? I do, and when i logged into a VPN iwas able to get right on.

[EQBallzz]

Now I'm getting either a never ending "connecting to the server..." window or a message, "A connection to the server could not be reached. Please check your internet connection to make sure you are online." Posting and reading on the Internet to make sure I'm online..

As a matter of fact, I do!

Yeah, I have ATT Gigapower service but I have never had this issue before tonight. My Internent is almsot always rock solid and super fast.

Do u have access to a vpn? may want to try that, there may be a connection between att hubs and eqemu thats down.

[EQBallzz]

Nope. No VPN access.

[Profyx]

Anyone with VPN access and AT&T want to test my theory, and provide results? Try connecting without VPN and see if its possible, then connect with the VPN.

[Gremel]

hmm may have been coincidence. i am able to log in normally again. note: i did use a vpn, and set my location to somewhere other than my normal and was able to get in. then killed the vpn and of course lost connection. tried without and it was fine using my normal connection

I think maybe just a coincidence. I just tried mine again and now I can log in also.

[syztem]

ATT here, when tethered or VPN i connect just fine. I convinced myself into a 20 minute reboot yesterday. all computers/disable wireless kick everything off, restart fully to fix it(granted ivebeen having TV issues for the last 3-4 days easy also, and when I see TV issues i know theres something usually wrong with the internet severely) did a download test my upload was 2x what my down was. AT&T confirmed it but could not give a reason why or what was wrong. said if it continues another day to call them and they would send someone out.

Sounds like a dns or just straight lag issue with certain things. I noticed netflix and certain websites that have certain ads or portals they hit before the main page can hang a while too like it cant quite grab them to load, but everything else works fine.


- edit should note, i just had 8 intances of failed login, hit enter after account/pw and it sat at attempting to connect. then another dozen failures of finding the servers or so and it finally worked. usually when i experience a slight lag OR i go too quick i notice the servers wont show up thats like 1 in 20 on a normal day though. this is def a AT&T incident.

[EQBallzz]

Awesome. Finally can get in but group is now gone. By the time I finish loading zone the fully popped king camp in SoL B has raped my face off and for some reason my FD button does nothing.

WTB Rez in Sol B!

[mythias]

I can't get in either .. but I do have AT&T DSL

[DrRick]

I've been having problems as well. Sometimes I can log in, sometimes I can't. Also AT&T.

[Nilstoniakrath]

Having all of these issues, finally did a complete re-install, and still get the same cr-p. Tried logging in to other servers/games, EQEMU has the same problems, but other games are no problem, and other EMU servers with special log-in processes (ie Hidden Forest) also work fine, so I am thinking that the issue is with EQEMU, for whatever reason

[Nilstoniakrath]

So has anyone contacted ATT to see why their internet connection is screwed? I would now but don't think they are available during the holiday weekend

[Nune]

VPN seems to fix this if anyone's looking for direct solutions

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Yeah I've been having issues for the past 2-3 days. ATT here. Several times tonight crashed while zoning, slight delays in game, etc.

[rollin5k]

Can't login or zone anymore...

[Speedi]

Pretty much the same problem for me.

[furny]

It's clearly ATT. I have ATT and can't get past the login servers. My friend on comcast gets on fine.

[mortanis]

Sorry for the delays, the issues stopped after while. Looks like I'm running into them again today though. *sighs* I 'could' have access to a VPN, but not without some firewall reconfigurations at work, which in truth I'm not willing to do at this time. However, we use AT&T for our main service at work, though it is much faster and fiber, I imagine I could run into the same issues there. On another side note, I use OpenDNS for DNS services on my internal network. Just the DNS, no parental services, etc... Obviously this has no effect on a resolution, just wanted to note it for everything gathering data. :)

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Yeah this is garbo.

Might help diagnose... ignore first hop, obscured to hide my local...

I noticed it's intermittent... probably a route flap...

Also -- seeing packet loss to 128.241.2.202

edit: hope -> hop

edit2: also -- if you guys are having trouble... keep trying, if the login screen dies, escape put password in again and login, if you get a blank login screen, same --- press escape -- login again, repeat until success.... It got me back in several times but had to keep trying.

[ZiggyTheMuss]

I just don't understand why this is happening. I can play any other game I want just fine, stream Netflix or download things just fine. My internet is working fine. Except for this game.

Probably due to a provider route on P99's side...

think of it like this....

you have a car (internet)... you can drive anywhere (netflix, amazon, etc).... but the road (route) that P99 lives on is... under construction... it's causing traffic jams (packet loss)... P99's drive way is probably fine... but the the road to get there is jammed up. On top of that... he might be the only one who lives on this road.... so you only have an issue when trying to get to HIS house. :)

[Gremel]

vpn does fix as long as i set it to be a location than my normal location

[BarackObooma]

There was a server message saying the server was coming down in 15 minutes which is now. It said 30-60 minute downtime.

Chardok/Vilefang revamp patch?

Global EJacuations I hope!

[Deklann]

I'm still having troubles getting on

Same, except for me it's worse now

[Nune]

Yeah, whatever happened this morning made this problem significantly worse. Even after trying 19 times to get to the character select screen, i get the spells outdated (they arent) message or the account appears 100% blank

I am not having issues like that. 9/10 I get errors trying to connect "unknown error" etc. Once I do get in latency seems a little higher than normal. But then I zone I DC. Before it was maybe half as bad, now it's just unplayable.

[Crede]

There's a thread on this in the Technical Discussion forums as well. The patch didn't fix anything, one member is having ATT come out and look at it.

[rugerx]

Hopefully a mod will consolidate this, ATT your ISP?

[ZiggyTheMuss]

Well so far I haven't had issues since the patch, but looking at the other posts here I am probably just getting lucky.

[Ivory]

I been havin the problem today :< Things have been a little laggy in game (delayed consider and whatnot)....and going link dead during zones....and finally went link dead again and trying to log on but not showing server status or just not connecting to show servers at all.
