No servers in server select screen
Hi,
I have been playing P99 for months now - mostly from my serviced apartment complex. Once in a while I will get the blank server select screen, I will just relog in a few times, till I see the list. Today is different - for almost an hour I am getting the blank server screen (no servers list), and no luck with relogging, restarting EQ, and rebooting PC. I got the server list TWICE, and both times when I logged in, I got the "files are not uptodate" at the char select screen. My files are all upto date - I could log into P1999 with no issues till yesterday. I have also checked with the complex's ISP provider/support and they havent changed any settings, including anything to port 5998. I have also searched and checked previous posts here - and tried everything (including the wierd use mouse clicks/and not enter to navigate "solution suggestion" heh) to no avail. Is there anything SPECIFIC I can do and use that information to check with ths ISP on the network etc? Please advise. Thanks. Dury | ||

I kept having this same problem, and then it switched to simply popping "Error - a timeout occurred" and not letting me into the P99 server OR the server list either whenever I try to log in. >:
I installed everything for the first time yesterday, and worked fine until around 7pm -4:00 gts I think. | ||

Now back to no servers ( | ||

When I can log in but can't see any servers it's usually because my cablemodem is too warm and I'm getting too much packetloss. Try turning your cablemodem off for a couple minutes and plugging it back in. You should see servers then. At least, everytime I do that I see them again. (This happened to me last night in fact, didn't go away until I rebooted my cablemodem. I had been watching videos on Hulu before I got booted and couldn't see servers anymore)

I am in a hotel complex (serviced apartment in a hotel) so no modem/router alas.
I tried now and after a few tries, could log in a character with no issues - So defenitely something to do with latency/ISP here? Any specific tracert or something I can run to verify? | ||

do a tracert on project1999.org. The website his hosted in the same datacenter as the p99 server I believe. So you should experience the same issues going to the website as going directly to the server.

I am starting to have this problem now. Trace looks ok for ping lag. Could it be Comcast? Anyone else on Comcast?
