pc specs:
Windows 7
AMD FX8350 CPU
Nvidia GTX 760 GPU
Onboard Realtek PCI-E Ethernet, most current drivers installed.
Using Wineq2.0

Still cannot connect to red or blue 40 minutes later.

Steam still downloading at a steady 2.0 MBPS while the game continues to tell me it cannot connect. Pausing downloads to alleviate bandwith allocation does not work. Any actual helpful info would be greatly appreciated.

I am right there with you Xer0. I spent several hours yesterday attempting to log in and either got kicked at char select back to log in or would get kicked right before making it in game and would have to wait to retry because it says I have an active character. Usually once I make it in game I am ok until I zone then it starts all over again. I only made it into the game 1 time yesterday and every additional attempt for the better part of yesterday failed.

This is pretty frustrating. I can log on to other servers no problem the only server I have issues with is p99s servers.

Going to keep res'ing this thread until I get some results. I've asked about this several times, and always get the same watered down basic-techs-support bullshit answers.

The problem is not with my internet connection.

If you'd learn to read, it'd be apparent that it is in no way shape or form my internet.

I am getting 16 Mb down and 2 Mb up on speedtest.net at the exact time that the server is not allowing me to reconect. I'm able to download torrents at 3.0 mbs, steadily as well as gams via the steam server with 100% consistency nothing but a minor drop in speed eveyr few minutes (speed never leaves 10 Mbps,) all during the periods of time that the game will not connect


So please explain to me how is it MY internet?

Have you run a traceroute? Whenever this happens to me, it turns out that some server, somewhere, is timing out.

Xer0,

I know you're frustrated (I've been there) but try not to be snippy. We really are trying to help and if you stick with it, we'll get you in the game.

Is anything overclocked? GPU or CPU

This can be a simple check mark in a small box you never even noticed.

I am still in the same boat. Ive only made it into the game successfully 1 time in the past 2 weeks. Every instance since has been make it to char select. Char logs in then kicked back to login. When I try to log back in says I have an active character and I have to wait to rinse and repeat. Before in the past it would work itself out after about 10+ attempts but not any longer.

I am putting windows on one of my laptops today and will install EQ there and try from a different connection tomorrow to see if there is any change and will report back with the findings. As it is now p99 is unplayable for me which is super shitty.

I'm trying not to, and I appreciate the input; But I've made a thread in regards to this circumstance at least two other times and every time the same people say to me "hey guess what its your internet", when I've been to two different ISPs, Three different Modems and three different routers in the time since it has started occuring. (Meanwhile I'm clocking speeds of 16 Mb/1Mb down/up respectively on speed tests and downloading at 3.0 Mb/s.. in the moments that this is occurring. Granted I know this hogs bandwidth so I typically do not leave any downloads on while tryign to connect, just to check connectivity strength)

My GPU and CPU are all clocked at standard speeds.

As far as running a tracert I've not done this, as I'm not sure what IP to trace. Kind of why I came here, as I am not that well versed in the more technical aspects of network troubleshooting (Though I know how to tell when my connectivity is at fault and all signs point to no as far as that is concerned.)

I got my 8350 to work EQ, but I needed to underclock my 9590. Try underclocking?
