Problems after Server Restart

[Wisteso]

Yes I'm having this issue with 90% of attempts to zone within the last day. Almost never before then, was maybe 5% of times before. Loading screen set to NONE does not help at all.

Nothing has changed on my end. Looks to be a server issue.

[Zheddar]

Do any of you have clients altered in any way from a fresh Titanium and then the P99 files added? You know, like better world textures or anything like that? Should be pretty fast to do a complete fresh install if anyone wants to try it and report back. My stuff has been fine. Also I am on Comcast, it could be an ISP issue, what are you using?

[Shodo]

Using Centurylink in the Northwest. I do have improved textures and a different set of hotbars, so I'll try a fresh install.

[Zheddar]

How is that working Shodo?

[Shodo]

Haven't made it home from work yet, will be testing in twenty minutes or so. Can't remember if I kept the copy of titanium I *purchased,* so it might be a couple hours before the new install is done.

[Shodo]

Have a completely fresh install, applied p99 files and followed the getting started guide - have not touched a single setting or file past that. Still have the issue - loaded in alright (took a little while), attempted to zone to everfrost from blackburrow - I did zone successfully, eventually. Once in EF, I camped to char select (also successful). When I tried to "enter world" again, I crashed to the login screen after several minutes of waiting.

Here are the lines at the bottom of dbg.txt (one of the FAQs said it can be useful):

v v v The below appears to be some time after Blackburrow loaded. A lot of the text mentions the connection closing/terminating and then re-establishing. Not sure if that is normal or may be related to the issue.

Thank you for all the info, looking over it, also I wish we had more ISP info. Running 2 accounts here, my wifes and mine, still no issues. Same install your using...Trying to get an idea of what is griefing this.

It's looking a lot like an ISP and or possibly a DNS issue, If it is, it sucks that it is happening during double xp, but it will clear up like a cold, eventually. I can't see much more in the info, double checking.

My wife and I both work tech and we talked about it. You could try a restart of your modem and or possibly call the company to have them send a signal to reset it.
