I keep getting this error ( Cannot log into eq server. you may need to rerun the update patch. Repeatedly seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the patch server. this is usually temporary.) every time i log into eqemu and pick a server to log on to. I checked my host and its 5998 and i have shortcut set to patchme but still no luck. Few times i also got a ( Error- A Timeout occurred ) Message which bumps me back to the log in screen. Any ideas how i can go about fixing this?

Are you sure you have the correct version?

Well i had to reinstall and repatch a few days ago due to having to reformat my computer. If thats the prob anyway to fix it so it works with the servers?

No you'll have to wait for the emu to catch up to live. I had to wait from November until the May fix so don't feel bad :) I'll certainly always have a backup though so it never happens again

I have the same problem, but my EQ folder is a copy of someone who does play, so it cant be a patching problem. Disabling my firewall doesnt help either.
