So since i started playing on the server a few weeks ago this has been a constant problem when trying to log in. It happens every single day though sometimes for much longer than others.
For example, this morning i've been doing some paperwork while trying for over an hour to log in, probably some 40 attempts or so and have gotten through to the char selection screen once then the game crashed connecting to the server (happens probably 50% of the time as well). However a couple of days ago, i switched between my characters several times in quick succession without any problems at all. This is making it very frustrating to be able to take advantage of time-limited events (HH, x5) when i never know if i'll be able to swap characters without for an hour to log back in.
As mentioned, whenever i do get to the character selection screen the game will crash 50% of the time as soon as i select a character. And recently the game has started to hang after selecting the ship. It feels like i'm having to jump through hoops just to be in with a chance at actually making it onto the ship.
Is it my connection? Something to do with IP ranges? I used to have trouble with schtserv in certain IP ranges though I have no idea why.
Thanks for any help.
