Logging in issue when connecting to server

[Hyperbase-1999]

I've been getting the same since Friday which is frustrating as it's a 3 day weekend.

I have managed to get on but it literally took hours of attempts, when I did get on I wouldn't make it from character select to the world and when I did get in it wouldn't be able to zone.

Ping/Tracert/WinMT and it looks like I get 15-20% packet loss when I get to Hurricane Electric.

Same on all computers in the house, all plugged into Ethernet so no wireless, spent all day messing around with router settings to see if I could improve it but nothing makes a significant change.

This has only been happening the last 3 days or so.

issues:
1. Blank server selection screen 80% of the time
2. An unknown error occurred while trying to join the server. (server's came up, 9% packet loss between HE and 170.rogean.com
3. Error - a timeout occurred before the server selection pops up, after this it doesn't pop up of course.
4. When it does connect just freezes between char select and logging in.
5. Managed to connect, green bar shows 100%, PL highlighted by couple of pixels on moving from side to side on the bar. (2-4 pixels by a rough look.) and it will freeze when zoning 99% of the time
