I was talking to a guildy the other day about this and he claimed it had something to do with the RAM "bottoming out". He said that when you zone into a zone the EQ client loads up all the memory but when you zone out of the zone it doesn't clear that memory out properly (or something like that). So after awhile of going through different zones the client ends up freezing because it can't load anymore memory.
Told me to restart my computer and try again. Sure enough, after a restart the problem does go away, but depending on how much you zone determines how long until you have to restart your computer again. If I am porting a lot it only takes a couple of hours before I have to reboot everything.
Really wish this wasn't an issue at all though.

I will try this and see, I do porting as well so I guess it could be something like this.
I have been having this problem, it has gotten WAY worse this past week. I have tried resetting my modem/router, disabling and enabling my wireless card through my OS. For a while, it seemed like just resetting the modem/router "fixed" things, but yes this past week it has been pretty bad. I can get into the game usually, it is just when I zone that the problem occurs. If the server select screen is black, I just hit Esc and login again and the servers usually show up always. I guess if I don't come back to complain more, maybe just restarting my computer is the solution for now, until something better can be found.
