Unknown error trying to join server - Page 3

Also having the same issue. I've restarted. I'm already updated for the spells file as well as the v4changes. I logged in earlier today, no problem, havent been able to log in since. When I get to server select, it stays blank for a long period of time before finally giving Error- timeout error. If I use the 'Quick Connect' button at login, I get to character select, but none of my characters are there. Been like 4 hours, reset modem, restarted several times as I said. Any updates are appreciated.

Is this issue getting any attention? I've been attempting logins for a few hours now with no success. Would also like to note that the p99 website seems to be pretty slow for me as well

During peak times I run into higher latency and some packet loss. The netcoding of this emu is picky as shit. I have those problems during these times. The game is very intolerant of a less than desirable connection.

Problems I run into:

Time out logging in.
Server select screen comes up but no servers listed.
Click to enter server and it winds up timing out.
Timing out while zoning. (most view it as 'zone crashing' when you really don't 'crash', it is timing out which forces you to reset your computer)

Hmm, this happened to me yesterday, I ran ccleaner and reset, and it went away. Strangely, running ccleaner when I have eq problems fixes a lot of them for me.

Been getting this since about 10:30 EST last night as well. Crashed on zoning and since then fubar'd. Log-in screen time-outs, empty server select, server log-in time-outs, character log-in time-outs and finally an extremely high chance of zone crashing seem to be the norm. As the last bit implies you CAN get in the game. Just takes patience. More if you need to zone.

Have tried every fix mentioned. IP renew, restart, cussed out monitor, router reset. Didn't bother updating spells though as I have been playing totally fine prior to last night.

How many of you guys have U-verse. . . . . ? /rage

Hmmmm I have U-Verse also. Maybe that is the common problem.

I have Comcast and play on Linux under WINE and had this problem last night after having played for a couple nights with the new spell files.

I received a druid port to North Karana, game froze up on loading that zone, then when attempting to log back in received Unknown Error for about 5 minutes and following that was able to sign back in.
