A connection to the server could not be reached.

[Space]

Well, I've tried everything twice with no success. I can't seem to connect to the server. The majority of the time when I try to log in with my account, I get an error message that "A connection to the server could not be reached." I rarely make it to the character select screen, but I've never made it into the game.


Things I have tried:

• Reinstalling a fresh eq titanium.
• Allowing security access to all the eq folders.
• Manually patching eq by changing the eqhost file, downloading the latest files, etc.
• Using eqemu to patch.
• Using Duxa's setup.
• Resetting my modem.
• Restarting my computer after changes.

The only times i seem to get into the character screen are when I first reinstall titanium. But it says my files are out of date. When I get the latest files, I can't connect at all.

The game works fine on my laptop, which has windows 7 and is really no different than my desktop, but with no dedicated graphics card and a dual-core processor.

Any help would be appreciated.
