This issue occurs on P99 but I believe it's likely to not be specific to their server. I've attempted to bring the issue up with them but they're not taking it too seriously yet even though its affecting a noticeably percentage of their players, (by their own admission).
Issue behavior (about 10% of the time):

The issue has been happening a good 10% of the time while zoning in my case. My connection seems to be fairly stable for everything else, I have some packet loss showing up on the ntt.net, xo.net and rr.com tier1 networks, but I'd imagine thats pretty standard. This server had zero issues for me for years until a week ago - no changes on my end.
Even if no one has any ideas on the main issue, maybe they know...
Does the client try multiple times to connect to the new zone? It seems to only try once (and fails)
I am running an EQEmu server on a virtual machine (no one using it though) with port forwarding. Do the server and client ports have any conflicts/overlap?
