Default Server Select window empty after replacing sim card in phone I use for internet.

I recently created a new phone account and had to replace my sim card as part of that process. I tether via usb to my laptop to have internt. Browsing the internet has had no issues, but when I attempt to log onto P99, the server select window has no servers listed. IT is just all black. I have attempted resetting devices, using a vpn, flushed the dns. Nothing has worked. I have made sure the EQhost file is as it should be. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your new phone / ISP is blocking non-standard ports. You need 5998 to be allowed as well. You can verify this by trying your old SIM if it's still active/works in your new device, or use someone else's service temporarily. Usually it's the resellers, like cricket or uh cleartalk or w/e they're called, and not the actual providers like Verizon, AT&T or whatever (assuming US) that only allow basic stuff. I think it's to prevent people from using their cheap plans for hosting FTP sites or Plex servers or something. A call to your new provider's support may resolve it.
