Having the same problem on 4 different PC at 3 different location. Using 3 different ISP (ATT Uverse, Comcast, Sonic Fusion DSL). Gateway get stuck on varies screen or disconnect every few minutes. Generally very slow. Started a couple days ago and now just stuck at the login screen.
A hunch I have is that the gateway is now supposed to be showing characters on both servers and that for some reason is causing a major problem. Thats the way the gateway before worked when there were multiple servers. The character list had all toons across servers just that the server name next to toon was different.
They probably flipped the gateway switch monday evening and ever since its had problems. This is a just a guess but as many others have said...problems start around the same time as xbox launch...strange coincidence indeed
I was able to login to gateway briefly not long ago and do some professions tasks, but kept having to hit refresh (F5) quite a bit as it kept locking up. After about 5 minutes, I could never get a refresh to work and got booted to login.

Face it, this game is running on a shoe string and with the recent firings I really doubt it that they get their act together anytime soon. Not enough manpower, not enough budget, trying to roll out a new module, but every preview version so far has only introduced new bugs and imbalances.
On top of this they port their game to consoles, so everyone now has to pull double duty for Xbox and the Pc and all of that without investing into their infrastructure.
I work for a mid-sized internet provider, I see exactly these problems every day. Stuff breaks, no one is available to fix it because of other more pressing schedules, problems are being juggled between different departments where nobody has the time or competence to work on them. No extras are hired and the experienced workers just do their duty and try not to burn their fingers on pressing problems, cause they know that this won't get them a reward but only more annoying requests. Still the company does not go bankrupt because the base product is quite good, but everyone can see how poorly managed things often are.

*nods.. prob one of the reasons I never get upset about these things.. I am an IT guy.. I know why and how things don't work.. eventually they'll get fixed.. until then.. you just take a break..
It is hard to fathom the thought process that led to axing 1/4 of the team right before the rollout on a new platform upon which the companies future likely rests.

hmm maybe they should sell bug fixes in the zen store and we could buy those. Top 5 most purchased bug fixes each week get fixed in the following patch. Failure for one of the top 5 bugs to make it into a the subsequent patch release means they release a free blood ruby for everyone in game.

"we cannot afford to buy new servers because people dont want to buy zen and xbox launch is ahead... we have no staff to fix bugs and inballance all around... you know what? we take servers from gateway, maybe none will notice... reschedule of mod6 is unevadable..." (!!!)
Same issues with the gateway... disconnections, extremely slow, extremely frustrating to use due to the disconnects, slow speed, and bugs (start button light up to click, and by the time you get down to the button, it's grayed out). When I started using the gateway, I could collect six tasks, assign six tasks, and move on in less than two to three minutes... Now... seven to fifteen minutes per character.
yes **** this XBOX. stupid administration. cant handle one server in pc always bugged and go release a xbox version go to the ****ing hell i hope this shiit XBOX thing fails mfckers

It's slowly starting to revocer now, at least enough to set new tasks without reloading the Gateway all the time. Either they fixed something or the stress on their network is down since it's late in the US.

yup it's been off since yesterday ever since I upgraded my Firefox to version 37 as on version 36 it was lagging like crazy, so I guess they need to get the security thingie up for version 37 again and fix some **** on gateway too, which they are apparently looking into, dunno how much will be solved in today's maintenance though.
Dunno about the rest of you, but for me it's not even starting up now since I upgraded my Firefox to version 37, so pls devs fix the gateway, but make sure you fix it for everyone. Thanks.

Took me three tries just to get in, it gives me a warning about unsecured connection, then once inside the load times are horrendously long.
It needs to be fixed still.
