For testing purposes, have you guys tried connecting to PEQ the Grand Creation server? Just using that as an example as I know it should work just fine. Also, does this happen everytime you try to connect, or just some/most of the time?

If it happens every time, maybe you somehow have port 5998 blocked. Also, if your client version is not the correct one, you will have that problem as well. Only fresh unmodified/unpactched installs of Titanium or SoF directly from the Disks will work. I have also heard that having the EQLive trial package installed can cause problems with EQEmu.

You may also want to try this to make sure that port 5998 is open to your connection:

I get the same error, I have tried connecting to all the servers and no luck... I keep getting error 1017. I did not patch eq live or anything I did everything eqemu say's to set it up. I am logged in as an adiminstrator. I tried disabiling my firewall completely and I still get the error, I have verizon fios and have a Actiontec m1424WR modem for it. When I clicked that link that you provided and put in port 5998 I get "XXXX isn't responding on port 5998". If I turned off my firewall how could it be the firewall that is blocking the port? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks
