Recent zone loading freezes, crashes, & failure to connect to server

[HtotheK]

start comparing your traceroutes to 66.55.145.2.... i bet you'll find the common denominator....

Looks like server is hosted at gameservers.com which is hosted behind choopa which is having an issue their connectivity to certain providers (mainly att).... this is just a guess.


edit: looks like it might finally be fixed... it's working on every attempt now.

Still having all the same issues this morning after patch, so still not fixed.

Exact same problems here. I have an AT&T tech coming to the house on Wednesday, as I have noticed some coincidental slowness in browsing as well. But, never had a problem until a few days ago. Whether in windowed mode or not, attempting to log in I get either:

1) After typing password, I get "logging in to server...", and then a pop up stating there was a problem and could not log in, or;

2). The password is accepted and I can log in to the server select screen, but it is blank/black with no severs to select; or

3). I get all the way to character select (after an inordinate loading time), but when I click "enter world" it freezes/never takes me into the world, and I have to end task; or

4). I get all the way in, finally, and can play (with some subtle loot lag/ghosting which never used to occur), but I get stuck zoning - it takes longer than normal for the red "LOADING, PLEASE WAIT..." to come up in the chat bar, and then it just stays on that screen. I never actually get kicked back to the log in screen; or

5). On extremely rare occasions, I can play and actually zone once or twice after long zoning times, but eventually I freeze on zoning.

OK this morning I got in. But I got in yesterday morning too. SO either it's fixed or the volume of people logged on has an effect. /ponder But I got RL stuff to do now /shrug

[Slideonby]

Patch installed. Got on and was able to zone a time or two ... then game froze when zoning. Was hoping it was fixed.

Blank server screen....

Also AT&T Uverse customer (which I regret). Past few days I have been having all the same issues - freezing/crashing on zone loads, sometimes getting blank server select screen, even after today's V43 patch.
