Re-run the patch updater?

Hey everyone, so I was in the middle of zoning into WC but the loading was taking forever. Eventually EQ stopped responding, I shut it down, tried to log back in but couldn't reconnect to the server list.

Restarted the computer, internet seems to be fine, loaded YouTube, Twitch, forums, did a speedtest etc. everything seems to be good. Tried logging into p99 again, and first 4-5 times couldn't get to the server list. Eventually it let me threw, but when I tried to log into green, I got this message.

Any ideas?

Edit: Seems to working fine now. I didn't do anything, it just kind of fixed itself on its own. Hopefully...

Hi there,

I am new to p99 and I am also running into this as well. I've uninstalled and reinstalled EQ Titanium a few times and I get this error. I don't have trouble connecting to the preferred servers (i did this as a test) in the server selection list, but I see this for all of the p99 servers.

I am based in the EU although I am not sure if that matters. I've tried this with firewalls on/off and with antivirus on/off.

I know its not a solution to the OP but I guess its better to know that we aren't all alone in this.

When that happens pull the plug out of your modem, wait a couple minutes and plug it back in.

Ah okay. I'll give that a try when I get a chance (I have to do it when everyone is asleep otherwise my family is going to be annoyed), and fingers crossed it all works.

Hi there! I reset the router/modem combination and waited a little bit and it is still giving me the same error and behaving the same way. I did find the logs files and this is what it says.

I am not sure why its not letting me through although by the looks of the logs my authentication is somehow not making it?
