Yep aside from waiting, you can always try some more things. I have no idea what all things you have tried, and don't want to anger you more than this already has :P
-What type of internet do you have? cable, dsl, stolen wireless?
-Specs of your PC, what operating system?
Also, its not just this server.. people from the main
eqemulator.net forums are having issues. Hang in there.
