Server select issues

Bump
Also have AT&T DSL, wondering how it was fixed or what. Everything works flawlessly on other internet connections. I get home, plug in, and get 25/25 expansions, log in fine, and no servers available. Quick connect sends me to blank server screen.

I don't think we know why some internet connections or PCs have this issue more than others, but we do know that the problem is somehow being caused by the Login Server itself. Since not everyone has the issue, there must be a way to correct it on the client side, but no one has ever given a sure fix for it as of yet. The only fix would be to fix the Login Server itself. I believe Rogean is still in the process of trying to get a better working Login Server, whether that be by fixing the old one, or by adjusting the new one.

I know this has been a known issue for a bit, and I know you guys are working hard, you always do. I'm just sad, I really love playing on P1999 and it makes me emosad when I can't connect. Someone in IRC helped me run Wireshark to trace the stream, and in the stream text it was showing partial server names amongst tech-speak. I'm going to try either a new modem or new ISP in the meantime, don't have many other options. I literally disabled everything I possibly could with my client side internet service, not all at once, but nothing made any difference.

Also I'm pretty sure this happened to me two years ago when I was trying to play eqemu with the same ISP, I remember because I only played with my friend at his house, then stopped playing becuase he moved, but I may be mistaken. Either way this bottom of the bucket DSL isn't cutting it.
