Q u o t e:
We will not be conducting our usual weekly maintenance during the week of Tuesday, 9/15/09. There will be no planned downtime, and no server-wide restarts.

We will, however, be restarting Uther to address an issue with a missing boat, though downtime there should only be 3-5 minutes. Everyone else, please enjoy an uninterrupted play experience!


The moon is blue and yes, Virginia, there is a Santa. :)

While realms will not experience any notable downtime this week, we still encourage you to continue your routine computer security practices. Now is as good a time as any to check for possible malware, complete any pending OS updates, and verify that your registered email address is secure and private.

As always, here's this Tuesday's Recommended Reading List:




Enjoy!

Halara,

See the larger thread on this, try the steps at the bottom of page one. Seems to be helping most folks get back on, I think it's a DNS issue.

Q u o t e:
I got an error for that link.

However, I've renewed my IP and flushed my DNS. This isn't a cannot connect, or hanging/dropping out issue as far as I can tell.

The login server is down, server side, and I am sad ;_;


Not down for me, Irshy. This does sound like a connectivity issue.

Hmm, ok.

So I've reset my PC (just then, still down). Reset the IP and flushed my DNS, the rest of my internet is working fine.

What should I do now?


Perhaps perform a traceroute and see if you can spot an outage.
