So, i know there is already a thread like this but ... there wasnt much of an answer there so here is my story.

A few days ago eq/p99 was working fine. Then out of no where when i log in i get the spell file out of date thingy. so i go to get the spell file except its the same i already had. Reinstalled and now i freeze when i zone +50% of the time. And that is when i can log in. Other times i get the timed out message or there are no servers on server select and stuff like that.

So, does anyone have any kind of fix i can try? This really came out of no where so im totally lost.

Thanks in advance!

Covering old bases, are you on a wifi connection? Is anyone hogging all the bandwidth? Plug an ethernet cable in if so and see if that improves things.

If you're wired and can load webpages quickly then it's probably the same crap a lot of people are feeling. I'm not in America but I've noticed a lot of people cursing Comcast, are you on Comcast?

I've been having these same issues for a long time now. I get LD upon zoning, gating, porting, or anything that requires a "new" zone to need to "Load". I also sometimes have days where I don't experience it as much. But I am always trying to mentally calculate how long a zone occurs, versus the amount of time it takes when successful.

What I found strange was, in the last patch, one of the items was supposed to possibly remedy this problem. However, it actually seemed to increase the rate it occurred, at least on my end.

I know others in game that are experiencing this as well. We have discussed it and we all are starting to feel that this is a server side problem. Mainly because of the different systems we are using. We all are aware and able to configure the client correctly.

With that said, perhaps the tech portion of the 1999 staff might could run some diagnostics. Maybe the solution is just waiting to be discovered and fixed.

I see no servers listed. I followed the install guide to the letter. Everything else on my system works fine including other online games.
